Tekonsha Trailer Breakaway Kit - Kit with Charger - 2028 Review Video

We have a pretty close option with the Jacketed 12 gauge wire part #12-2-1 which we offer by the foot. This would work great to replace a double bonded 14 gauge wire setup. The slightly thicker core of the 12 gauge wire compared to 14 would not…

Yes, you certainly can install E-track with one in front and one in back of the tires. It makes sense to position the track that way, since the ATV may be on one side or the other. E-track is so versatile there are a lot of different ways you could…

Sounds like you have the 12 volt power circuit of your trailer either running to only your breakaway battery or only the trailer lights. Most likely the issue is the connection that you are making from the battery to the 12 volt system. Make sure…
