Default Brake controller problem

Anyone have an issue yet with their integrated brake controller? I had my brakes re done on my RV, didn't work that well. Took it to another RV dealer and they checked and said brakes were good. It must be the two vehicle.
Does anyone know how to check the brake controller to see if it is functioning properly?

May be a dumb question, but did you set up the trailer as having electric brakes on the towing screen?

Several times.....brakes worked fine for 3000 miles, but then I lost most of them. Dealer replaced some brake parts and I had even less brake after that.
The next dealer said all is good with the RV.

I am currently towing my trailer cross country. I have had set my controller to 9 to get it to work. I assumed something was wrong with the trailer brakes. When I towed with my 2011 I set the controller to 5.5.
I guess I will take to dealer to check out put of controller.

Hi mnsunset,

Please shoot me a PM verifying the year and current mileage of your rig; I'll see how I can assist.
