trailer brakes 'grabby' when warm and used lightly
when coming to a stop, after we've been on the road a bit.. as the speed slows down the trailer brakes start grabbing/pulsing as if the drums were out of round.
It's only under light braking and slow speeds, faster speeds or heavier braking the brakes work fine.
Brakes are maybe a year old (long story, new axle last year), I've adjusted them and in total there's probably 1000 miles on them.
I haven't dig into these to know if they are self-energizing, maybe it's just a poor design?
Edited to add: currently using OEM RAM brake controller built into our new truck, previously had same situation with Tekonsha Prodigy P3 controller.
