the deal is if you run drum brakes it works fine but if your running disk's then it wont read right.

Why would you have electric over hydraulic on a travel trailer.

First of all why not? its a 38' fifth wheel trailer they are best thing since sliced bread. So much better control than strait electric trailer breaks. My 09 works with my Breakrite system just fine too.

Something has to be wrong on the trucks that are having problems.

I have disks on both of my trailers and it reads them just fine. Not trying to cause a problem but that statement just isnt correct. I have also had an issue with a trucklite brand LED light having a short in it that caused my Breakrite system to run when the running lights or blinker were on.

I just never heard of any kind of surge brakes on an rv. Guess it's a good idea. I love the electric over hydraulic on boat trailers. Ford tells you their controller won't work with all systems especially eoh.

Just going off what I was told when I called breakrite and my problems with the ford controller. Really dont care the why just want it to work right spend 15 thousand on a trailer and think it would work with the truck or at least have a easy fix with out having to add another controller

is your trailer a goose neck or a bumper hitch? Just a stupid thought but I wonder if you dont have a ground problem to the truck? I would hate to have the problem your having. It sounds like a ground issue to me from your trailer to your truck.
