Electric trailer brake in new Ford SD
#12
I bought the unit in question and tried it on my 08' F450. Didn't help at all. Called the factory and they said ford and changed some things on the 08' from previous yrs and that they were working on it but no fix yet. I then found a local trailer supply company that was able to by pass PART of the factory unit and install ANOTHER controller. This works good and the factory unit isn't throwing any codes. However most places were of no help until I found this one.
Good Luck

I called Carlisle their Engineer told me theirs will not work with 08 Fords but they are working on it and Ford has not been helpful.
A Dexter Engineer told me theirs will work but you get codes that are not true. Ditto Ford's attitude
Titan (Brakerite) told me that theirs works great but needs a converter box for the 08.
My question to all was will they work twith 3 axels & disc brakes
The Brakerite was recommended by one of the distributers that advertises on OSO and I am leaning that way. Any other input would be appreciated.
