I"ve owned used and bought and sold electric brake equipped trailers for over 45 years and the main problems I"ve encountered EVEN WITH FACTORY NEW TRAILERS are poor grounds and poor (often only crimped) connections. If you do it right the first time then you can expect good service for years. One of the methods (or solder) I use is twisted wire nut splices then sealed with silicone and as far as the main frame ground I often weld a stainless steel bolt to the frame and use stainless steel star bite lock washers to attach a connector and then cover and seal all that with silicone. If you can keep moisture and especially oxygen off surfaces then there"s less chance of OXIDATION/RUST. On some installations I even run a dedicated independent ground wire (i.e. 2 wire system hot and ground).
