Re: Help with electric brakes



It's WAY beyond overkill. not to mention, a #6 wire won't fit into a
trailer plug. so it's most likely bull*** anyway. A simple 12ga wire to
the frame of the vehicle is all that's necessary. After all, the frame is
steel and it is in turn hooked directly to the battery via the battery
cable.

It's overkill, but when I wired in my brake controller and battery
recharge, I used #6 stranded as my white/ground/return between the
bumper connector and negative post on truck battery, plus connected it
to truck frame near bumper. ?Now my voltage bottle neck is the smaller
wiring in the connector cable to the trailer battery.

Holly ***! That is more than "overkill". I am surprised you are able
to turn your trailer. With wire of that size, I am surprised someone
hasn't stole it to sell for drugs. :-)

I wonder if John H. found his problem.
