Roadmaster InvisiBrake Braking System Installation - 2018 Ford F-150- Video
Hey everyone. Shane here with etrailer.com. Today I have a 2018 Ford F-150. I'm gonna walk through how to install the Roadmaster InvisiBrake. The InvisiBrake is gonna be a braking system that mounts inside the vehicle to allow the towed vehicle, to not only slow but stop itself while it's being flat-towed. That way we're not depending on the brakes on the RV to stop both vehicles. more

SMI Stay-IN-Play DUO Braking System Installation - 2018 Ford F-150- Video
Clayner: Hey, everyone. How's it going Clayner at etrailer.com. And today I'll be showing you how to install and we'll go over some of the features of the Demco Stay-IN-Play Duo supplemental braking system on our 2018 Ford F-150.Our supplemental braking system is one of the key components in our flat towing setup. We have our tow bar, our base plate, our trailer wiring, our safety cables. Now you might be asking yourself, "Why do I need this" Or, "Is it required" Well, actually, most States do require you to have a supplemental braking system. And the reason that is, is if your vehicle does happen to become detached from your RV, it'll apply the brakes in your vehicle, bringing it to a safe stop.The only visible part of our braking system on the outside of our vehicle is going to be our breakaway switch here and that's what initiates the brakes to be pressed if it does come detached. more

SMI Air Force One Braking System Installation - 2018 Ford F-150- Video
Speaker 1: Today on our 2018 Ford F150 we're gonna be installing SMI's Air Force One supplemental braking system, part number SM99243. The Air Force One braking system is gonna provide you with supplemental braking while pulling your vehicle behind your RV. It's gonna use the air braking system on your RV to supply an airline back to your vehicle which will actuate your braking system using the supplied operating unit.It comes with an emergency breakaway switch so in case your vehicle happened to become uncoupled from your RV while going down the road this pin will get pulled and it will apply the brakes on your vehicle, bringing it to a halt to prevent any accidents from occurring. There's an indicator light that's installed on the back of your mirror, this way when you brake on your RV you know that your vehicle's braking because this light only activates when the actuator in your vehicle is pulling the brake pedal. What I really like about this system is that it's minimal in comparison with others. The components are smaller, it has less wiring, and using your existing air supply on your RV makes it actuate proportionally giving you some of the best braking performance you can get.Now that we've gone over some of the features let's show you how to get it installed. more

Roadmaster Brake-Lite Relay Kit Installation - 2018 Ford F-150- Video
Speaker 1: Today on our 2018 Ford F150, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Roadmaster Brake-Lite relay kit for towed vehicles, part number RM-88400. First let's talk about what comes in our kit. You're going to have your brake relay, which is going to attach to your brake light switch, your fuse tap, your 10 amp fuse, a few butt connectors, ring terminal, your self tapping screw, and a little extra wire.So let's talk about what our vehicle's going to do if we don't have our brake relay installed. Let's say you have a brake system on your towed vehicle or on your Ford. You're towing it down the road, when you hit your brakes in your RV, the brake lights are going to come on in your truck or in your towed vehicle. However, when you hit your brakes and you turn on your blinker in your RV, you're only going to see the brake lights in the truck because the brake light signal is overriding that turn signal. more
