Brake Controller Failed

Traveler

My Chevy brake controller has stopped working. I’ve not been impressed with it so plan to replace it with a new one. We have disk brakes so wanted to see what controllers other members are using and which one you would suggest. Would like something that was dependable.

Thanks

We have a maxbrake controller on our Dodge.

The factory controller on our Dodge wouldn’t work our electric over hydraulic disc brakes. I installed the maxbrake myself in about an hour and a half. You have to tie into the master cylinder but its real easy. I also purchased the wire harness adapter for my truck so it was plug and play. When I unplugged the factory controller, I now get a message on the dash but I just disregard it.

I use MaxBrake also. As Chip states the installation is straight forward. The difference between this and my old Prodigy 2 is dramatic. It is truly proportional based on the hydraulic pressure in your truck’s brake system. No more low speed grabby brakes. It it available frm Plug It Right, which is where I got mine. Di is very quick to get tge stuff to you.
