mine grounds back to the front of the trailer i believe i will check tommorrow
Each magnet has 2 wires and I know polarity isnt an issue, one goes to the connector for to the vehicle (usually blue) and the other is goes where? Is it a grounded to the frame?
I replaced all the wires going to my electric brakes, used 14 gauge. Some where melted from the last magnet failure, so all got replaced.

Guess I don't have to tell you what you already know. Good catch on the video link and thanks for posting it- it is a good tech source for anyone wanting info on trailer brakes and I'll be passing it on to others I know.

yea i thought so when I found it, wow everything I wanted to know and then some.
Great find and thanks for posting it.![]()
Now Im like hummmmmm hey I can make the second axle have brakes also!
Yea buddy.Shouldn't really need it but it does help. One of my plates hung up 10 + yrs ago so I yanked it and I never hooked it back up. Loaded the trailer with over 15000 # (with my jeep on it) and hauled it from CA to WI with only one axle with brakes - no problems from the trailer. We won't talk about the truck.
