brake controller
This feature is the interface between a tow vehicle and electric trailer brakes. It can be inertia-activated or based on time delay from activation of vehicle brakes. Typically located in the tow vehicles driving compartment with an electrical line running to the trailer wiring connector. Most require the user to adjust brake gain to compensate for varying trailer load. A brake controller is necessary when using electric trailer brakes.
