Oct 4 2023 while moving a 24ft box trailer from VT to FL, had a tire separation and my brake controller was working intermittently. So I stayed overnight in Chambersburg. Through a Google search I called the first shop that opened at 7AM, they referred me to Brechbill Trailer. I just drove over and waited for them to open. The Service Mgr pulled in after us and before entering the building approach me to find out how he could help. I explained I needed 4 new tires and have my controller checked out. He said no problem and had to go in and meet with his team, please give him 15 min. Well it was a short 15 min and the bay doors opened and a technician came out and pulled the trailer in. 1 hour later, with new Tires, controller and 7 pin connector I was on the road. All testing was explained during the process and I never felt like I was in the wrong place.. if you are within 50 miles, make the drive. It will be well worth the trip.
Equal-i-zer 80012140 Zip 4′ Breakaway Cable
It worked just fine as a replacement for the original cable. Once I accidentally turned on my trailer brakes and had to replace it, this was my first buy. After swapping my standard hitch for a goose neck option, my original cable ended up being too short.
The cable that was included with the trailer was okay, but this one really grabbed my attention. It works like a dream! It’s a breeze to plug into the box, and the coil with clip makes attaching it super easy. I’d totally suggest giving it a go.
Perfect!
Get the six-foot cable, trust me. They’re way shorter than they seem. I had to take mine back and get a longer one. When you really stretch it out, it only reaches about four feet. Plus, it’s a lot tougher to stretch out than you’d expect. Almost yanked out the breakaway pin. Got the six-footers on both my trailers now. Definitely a must-have upgrade, in my opinion.
