I have been dragging my 30 foot stock trailer around with a 98 GM dually for 12+years, put all new brakes and wiring on it when I first got it.
Typical cattle farmer as long as it was working so so it was good enough for what I was using it for, I knew the brakes were not as good as they were when I first got it, they still worked as did all the lights so the wiring I figured was fine.
The controller lit up when the truck was hooked to a trailer and the lights and numbers on it responded to truck braking.
Must be the shoes need to be adjusted, ya I will get to it someday.
A month ago I replaced my worn out GMC with a 2006 Chevy 1 ton dually.
The first time I hauled the trailer with the new truck the brakes were locking up and I had to turn down the controller.
Long story short regardless of what a controller says it is doing don't trust it.
