Need advise - trailer brakes not working!
Evening All!
Hauler has been sitting on the RV pad next to my house for the last 3 years. 5 camping trips during that time, with less than 1000 miles total. Prior to those trips (after arriving in SC), the brakes were cleaned/inspected/adjusted and the bearings/seals were replaced. Wiring connections were inspected and most were re-done (because they sucked).
Last time we took the trailer out (30 miles round trip), the Prodigy brake controller gave me the "P.F." (power fault?) several times but worked fine the majority of the time.
Fast forward to now:
-All wiring and connections inspected
-Brake fuse block replaced (it was crappy and suspect)
-Trailer end and Truck end of plug were cleaned and inspected.
-Pigtail was plugged in in the bed and below the bumper as well to validate the issue.
Problem: When attached to the truck, the prodigy BC displays "N.C." (not connected?) and I also get the two red dots. I also get the same indications with no trailer connected, and the controller continues to read "NC" overnight (?).
I have to tow 2500 miles for our upcoming move across country next month, and I will have about 1 week to get it fixed when I arrive home at the end of this month before that trip.
What should I check, and in what order? Thank you in advance!
