Why Would Boat Trailer Lock Up Brakes When Reversing  

Question:

Hello. I have a boat trailer with brake actuator that locks up when backing up. Im trying to identify the unit but there are no longer any stickers left. Can you assist me in identifying it? I can send pictures! Thanks,

If you email me back with the pictures you have I can see if we can identify what you have but most likely what's going on is that if your trailer is locking up brakes when backing up that your reverse lockout is not functioning or maybe your trailer does not have one at all. If it does have an electric solenoid currently it be possible it is not receiving the reverse light circuit it needs to function so you might check for that with a circuit tester like # PTW2993.
