We had an erratic air gauge problem on our 2007 Fleetwood Excursion on a Freightliner chassis. After several erratic trips, and then to the local Freightliner dealer. Much warranty work and several deductibles over a three year period we were finally on a trip to North Carolina and back to Tulsa when it went off full time. After a long discussion with another Freightliner dealer it was determined that the wiring (called a daisy chain) on the back of the dashpot was installed inside out. Turning the Daisy Chain around has made all the difference in the world and have had zero problems since.

We tow a Chevrolet Avalanche (same chassis as a Suburban) with our motorhome and in ten thousand miles we've never had an issue using the Brake Buddy. Make sure you have a taillight wiring kit for your towed vehicle and your ignition is in the locked position, gear **** in park, transfer case in neutral. If you are towing a two wheel vehicle drive vehicle there may be some slight change in requirements. Check your owners manual. You should consider a rechargeable jumper battery box to power your Brake Buddy or install an auxiliary battery. We used to tow a trailer and this system is a dream come true compared to that. I have a hard time even noticing that the tow vehicle is back there. In fact I have to check mirrors and rear camera to be sure it's still there. Smooth sailing!!
