In my experience brake controllers don’t gradually wear out.
That said do some reading. I thought there was some years that Dodge or Ram had sub standard brake controllers. Could be imagining it. And if it used to work great then imo it’s likely something downstream of the controller. As suggested above.
And it’s not obsolete technology. A functional brake controller from 1985 would lock up your brakes if the brakes are good.
I feel like I say this a lot on here. If you want more or better help online you need to be far more descriptive.
example, we have no idea if you just bought the truck, or it’s worked fine for you for the last 13 years until last Thursday or something in between.
Don’t know if your camper is new, or if it’s also from 1985 and never had the brakes maintained or repaired. Or if they worked good last month and you had the brakes “fixed” 2 weeks ago….or something in between.
