How Does Breakaway Switch Connect to Brake Buddy Classic 3 Braking System
Question:
I have a brake buddy braking system that has gone bad, I would like to replace it with a Brake Buddy digital Classic, but I seem to have a problem finding it, you show a classic 3 but it looks like it installs different it doesnt seem to have the breakaway terminals on top and I dont see where it connects any suggestions?

It sounds like you are asking about connecting the breakaway switch of the Brake Buddy Classic 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System # HM39494.
I cut out some pages from the instruction manual for you to check out, but what you'll do is actually connect the brown and red wires from the Dash Mount Connector directly to the breakaway switch itself. The Dash Mount Connector is plugged into the harness that is connected to the Brake Buddy which is how the breakaway system will operate if need be.
I have added a link below to a video install for you to check out as well, and if you go to about the 7:55 mark you can see the switch being installed.
