First time tower - just bought boat
#52
I do have to still keep a 7round to 5 flat adapter.....This is so I can more customers boat trailers around.
That 5th pin energizes the brake solinode to stop the flow of brake fluid to the calipers or wheel cylinders when backing up. When you bake up.....Your truck is applying pressure to the trailers M/C. With no solinode.....The trailer would just lock the brakes and sit there. It's a Hell of a problem to back a trailer that the brakes are locking.
