Electric brakes blow fuse??
If any individual electric brake electrically shorts out, will it cause total brake failure?

if wired to the SAE standards, electric brakes must be on an automatic resetting circuit breaker, not a fuse.
Again what fuse(s) are we talking about? I am presently rewiring a Keystone 5th wheeler and don't see any fuse or circuit breaker connections (on the trailer itself) to the brake wiring. Only a connection to the TV wiring, which of course is fused. But no resetting circuit breaker or protection on the trailer itself. Maybe I should break into the wire going back to the brakes and run it through a resetting circuit breaker but not sure what that would really accomplish. But there is certainly no circuit protection of the brake wiring from the factory.
