So I have my “new” 13’ f150 and I’m picking my camper up out of storage Tomm so I’ll be experiencing towing with my truck for the first time. So couple questions:

1. Will the onboard trailer brake be on once I plug in the camper to the truck or do I have to turn the brake “on” from a drop down menu in the dash display in order for it to engage.

2. Do I need to push the button on the end of the shifter so the truck is in tow/haul mode?

I think thats it for now that immediately comes to mind unless there unless there is anything else I should be aware of.

well here was nothing like what you speak of in the glove box, guess here’s hoping to that their installed. If that’s the case how do I know the trailer brake is engaged, does it pop up on the dash display? And is adjusting the trailer brake as easy as hitting the plus or minus on the control itself.

My old old camper is like 3000lbs I used to tow it with my edge w/ tow package so prob don’t need the wdh for this just to bring it back to the house I do have a new blue ox for our new tt and I did/ do have one for this camper it’s just getting sold with the camper hopefully Sunday.

Ill look up the tow/haul mode specifics. Thanks for the reply

Well after hooking up the camper the trailer brake worked right away, I always suspected the previous owner towed something and when I went to stats on the dash display for the trailer brake it had 2000 recorded miles on it already. Anyway brake worked great but I had the intensity on about 7.5 for a 2600 camper so idk how much I’ll adjust for the 6000lb camper we’re picking up Monday.

Don’t know for sure but that sounds like it was set to high for that light of a trailer.
