Factory EBC or use my P3?
Maybe I need to play with my 2011 Silverado 2500s factory EBC a little more but I really like the P3 I put in my Yukon 2500. Anybody use the P3 instead of factory EBC?

In heavy traffic...just touch your TV brake pedal enough to turn on the brake lights...that is what the P2/P3 senses for it's turn on...and do NOT go any farther to start TV braking
That will have the P2/P3 turn on the trailer brakes...using whatever presets you have dialed in
Then just keep your foot there without setting the TV brakes and the accelerometer will continue to keep the trailer brakes on
Now, it gotta slam on the brakes...ditto the above, but now you have the TV brakes in that game and the accelerometer will will send even more voltage to the trailer brakes
My P3 keeps the trailer leading and does NOT jerk, but IMHO, the GM brake pedal switch is extremely sensitive to movement and tells my P3 to turn on way before the TV MC ever gets PSI
On OEM IBC's...they will NOT turn on the IBC as soon as my P3...unless they too have a TV brake pedal switch sensor...and...that, that pedal switch is as sensitive as GM's
