Is Curt Spectrum Compatible With Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Braking System
Question:
I have a Curt Spectrum trailer brake controller installed into my Class A motorhome. Is it compatible with a Demco Stay-in-Play towed vehicle braking system?
asked by: Craig S
Expert Reply:
The Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo Braking System # DM86VR is a standalone system so no brake controller is required. The same is true for our other supplemental braking systems for flat towing. The Stay-IN-Play senses the rate of your RV's deceleration and triggers your towed car's brakes to slow down at the same rate just like a proportional brake controller. The Curt Spectrum # C51170 is only designed to work with trailer brakes.

Thanks for the clarification. Will having the trailer brake controller interfere with the signals for brake and turn lights at the 7-pin going to the towed vehicle?
