Bad Connection on Trailer Brake

After having my Tab CS-S for a week, I felt the brakes were not as effective as they should be. Setting the brake controller to its max, braking seemed to be just barely sufficient. This is my first camper ever, so I figured better safe than sorry, and headed back to the dealer (2 hours away). After a few test stops, the service manager discovered that only one brake drum was warm to the touch.
Within 30 minutes, the service tech had discovered and fixed the problem. Seems that during factory assembly, both wires going to the brakes had been inserted into the crimp connectors, but only one had actually been crimped. Now I'm a happy camper - literally!

Glad you got it fixed.

2Pipers, I'm not only happy you got it fixed in such a timely manner (after a half day of traveling), but you were perceptive enough to realize there was an issue. Safe travels and happy camping!!!2017 820R Retro Toy Hauler from 2015 Tabitha T@B from 2009 Reverse LG Teardrop (but a T@Bluver at heart)
