Well, it's getting closer. Been working on the truck and the camper. Just about ready. Had to replace a brake plate on the camper as I have had an issue since we have had it. Still concerned about the brakes in general on the camper. Last time I pulled it, they did not seem to work at all. Hard to stop that much weight with just the truck. Especially when I pull out from where I keep it and head straight down a hill.
I'm wondering if it is the controller, as I have checked the voltage coming out of the controller and only see 2.5v when just applying the brakes. When I turn the pendulum all the way forward I have the correct 12v at the plug. At the axles, I am only getting 7.5v. So i am getting a drop somewhere.
I also had one brake that had no dust inside. Looked like it had never worked since I purchased the trailer. So I need to get these straightened out before we go. If anyone has any ideas, let me know. Just making sure that they work before we leave.
So back to the trip. Laying out the path this week, we already have reservations at Mount Rushmore and west Yellowstone. If you remember, we could not get a site in the park. About to get me park pass tonight.
