BRAKES - Why aren't my electric brakes working?
Most electric brake malfunctions that cannot be corrected by either brake adjustment or synchronization adjustments of your brake controller can generally be traced to electrical system failure. Mechanical causes are ordinarily obvious (i.e. bent/broken parts, worn out linings or magnets, seized lever arms or shoes, scored drums, etc.). A voltmeter and ammeter will be essential tools for proper troubleshooting of electric brakes. NOTE: After replacing your brake shoes and magnets you will experience a decrease in braking performance until the components have worn into the drum and finished the burnishing process. This process requires many stops to bring the new shoe's performance back to normal. This may take more than 100 stops to finish this break-in period with stops of 20 mph decreases in speed. Please refer to the Dexter Service Manual for detailed troubleshooting instructions to further determine the cause of poor brake performance.
Cut and pasted. Same goes for Lippert brakes . http://lci1.com/images/support/lipsheet/0139.pdf .Did you look at them? Got grease in the drums? If so clean and then burnish them in.
