1. Our huge selection of electrical wiring and brake control units includes many styles of converters, adapters, and connectors- everything you need to tow any trailer safely.
2. Universal electrical wiring systems often require cutting and
splicing existing wires, or hard-wiring your vehicle to the trailer
connection. T-connectors eliminate cutting, splicing, and taping, and
make it fast and easy to connect your towing products.
3. Brake control systems modulate and control electrical currents
from the vehicle battery to the trailer brakes. The longer the brake is
depressed the greater the current delivered to the trailer brakes until
the pre-set brake power setting is reached.
4. Top quality brake control systems can detect the difference
between a gradual deceleration, like slowing for a traffic light, and
an unexpected event that requires sudden stopping.
5. A breakaway system will lock the brakes on the trailer in an
emergency situation where the trailer becomes separated from the towing
vehicle. Most states require the use of breakaway systems with separate
power supplies when towing trailers.
6. Many of our electrical wiring products connect to your vehicle
easily with no splicing of wires, no cutting or taping, and no special
tools required.
7. Most trailers operate on a two-wire electrical system where the
brake lights and turn signals operate on the same wire. When the towing
vehicle has separate wires for the brake lights and turn signals, a
taillight converter is required.
8. A passive electrical system operates without connecting directly
to the towing vehicle's battery. An active system needs direct battery
power to work. Consult your owner's manual for specific information
when purchasing electrical wiring and brake control systems.
9. It is common and often helpful to have electrical and wiring systems installed by a local professional.
10. Our helpful website makes finding the wiring system that works correctly with your vehicle fast, easy, and accurate.
