intermittent brakes
I am having the intermittent brake problem. I have done some diagnostics as recommended in other posts. I pulled the emergency connection and all four wheel rolled, I checked for power at wires coming...

no chance it's in one of the wheels. Only thing that could happen inside a wheel is the magnet goes bad either open (only that wheel wouldn't have brakes), or it shorts out blowing the fuse in your truck that furnishes 12V to the brake controller.
Just a tip put some Vaseline into your new crimp wirenuts to weatherproof them before inserting the wires.
Thanks Mike, I do have heat shrink connectors and I have dielectic grease. I will do as you suggest.
A couple years ago I had a similar brake issue with intermitant failure and it was a magnet had broken loose and the wire would short out but it never did blow a fuse but I would lose all brakes when it happened. I discovered it by pulling on all the wires looking for something lose and the wires on that wheel pulled right out of the backside when I pulled it. I wish this was that obvious.
