Is It Normal For The Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty to Barely Brake When Using Manual Over Ride?
Question:
I bought the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller. Not sure if it’s just because it is different than my previous break controller where I could squeeze the gain manually to stop the trailer. But with the Redarc if I press the button it does not stop the breaks like my old one. I barely feel it, even with the gain all the way up.

Expert Reply:
That is the way the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED52VR operates. This is one of the few controllers which only lightly activates the brake output when pressing the manual over ride. Redarc does offer their Tow-Pro Elite # RED44FR which allows you to switch to the user controlled mode which will give you more output to the brakes when using the manual over ride in this mode.
