Wink Bucking Trailer

Guys had a Gn start bucking bad at low speed stops. The only way to stop it is to disconnect plug. I had a voyger and over the weekend put a new 2020 Jordan on and found out that i had a short in trailer brake wiring, fixed it, and BOY did it every start working, could be best thing since sliced bread. It sure is nice now when you apply brakes you are going to know when the trailer brakes are going to enguage.

I just ordered a Brakesmart. Not installed yet but I hear some really good things about it. Very smooth and predictable. Easy install too.

I have towed about 1500 miles so far with my brakesmart. It is so smooth it almost dosent feel like it is working. The only way I know it is working is you can see the applied amps to the brakes, and my stopping distances are great.
