Key Features & Benefits

This cable basically delivers electrical power to your trailer brake controller. It connects the controller inside your truck or SUV to the trailer wiring connector in the back. It carries the signal that tells your trailer brakes when to activate, and how strongly. It's a pretty simple part, honestly, but crucial. It handles the power for the entire trailer brake system signal. Think of it as the main nervous system link between your truck and trailer when it comes to braking. Your foot hits the brake pedal, the controller sends a signal through this cable, and that tells the trailer’s brakes what to do. It plugs into the back of your brake controller unit and then into the 7 – way or 6 – way connector on your trailer. It's the path for everything related to brake function.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Without a good, solid power cable, your trailer brakes simply won't work reliably – or at all. You’ll notice if this cable is damaged pretty quickly – you might get intermittent brake function, or the trailer brakes might not engage at all. That’s obviously dangerous. A bad cable acts like a shield failing, leaving the system vulnerable. It's a relatively inexpensive part to replace, but it's one of those things you really don't want to mess around with. You can find these, and a lot of other trailer parts, over at Fixparts Online if you're looking for a good source. It’s just a bit of peace of mind, knowing your trailer is safely connected and braking when you expect it to.
