everyone this is a warning to those who

own a trailer with electric brakes we

just lost our brakes when we're in the

mountains of West Virginia due to due to

this this is the wire that runs through

the axle to power the brakes on the

other side and we have frayed wire here

here and here and over here as well this

wire is just worn just because it sits

in the bottom of the axle and rubs

around and the insulation just wears off

this is a terrible practice that

manufactures for some reason love to do

it only lasts a few years before you get

this problem so manufacturers please

quit putting wire through the axle it's

a terrible practice we need to be

putting it on the outside if you do put

it on the inside it needs to be secured

somehow just a quick warning if you got

a new trailer that hasn't had this
