I have a Brake Buddy and am never sure if it's working. It has the remote that's supposed to light when the brakes come on and the only time it works is when I'm standing next to the toad and the wife applies the MH brakes. The only time it works in the cab is when it's first turned on.
Several months ago, we had a problem where the tow bar pulled out of the brackets on the toad and I was pulling the toad by the short safety cable between the toad and the tow bar, not the one from the MH to the cross bar and the safety brake pulled, but wasn't working. Really cute, huh. Opened the door to the toad and no sound from the brake Buddy at all and the pin was on the ground. Was gonna send it back to Brake Buddy, but they wanted me to pay the freight. NO way.
