1. New IPA #9107B Electric Brake Force Meter (3rd Gen) w/Dynamic Load Simulation and Circuit Testing – for Use on New Model Vehicles – https://amzn.to/3xbSYlz

2. Thanks for the Steve Earle reference

3. Copperhead road!
   Yes
   I prefer a small stainless steel wire brush for those connections.
   They're not very durable and they don't last long but get a bunch of them from harbor freight😮

4. You gotta be kidding me. Send it back to the installer. Or charge the max.

5. Interesting watching this process. Did you ever get a resolution from the tool tech support? Thx!

6. Did you know that the silverado is the only truck made in Canada

7. Bought a caravan picked it up with a Hyundia no trouble with the lights, got home used the F100, blinkers going twice the speed, could not work out the trouble, as I only ever worked on direct connection to the light globs to make things work, watching this video opened up a whole new world on connections for trailers, As usual they found out a way to make simple connections that worked for 60 years, and made it more complicated than ever by adding a module and computer, thank you for opening my eyes to updated trailer system, will now have to add more study again at 75 years of age.

8. I did the little light test at the truck. The left turn signal worked but I can't get the right one to work.. Any suggestions?

9. Another great fix and informative video. Keep up the great work, Eric.

10. nothing silly.beginnings are impressed thankyou

11. I am just a fee minutes into this video and my first thought is…. are all the wires connected to the plug at the back.
    Came across one… no wires.. AT ALL….😂😂😂

12. Classic trailer park trash – fuse!

13. Factory torque specs 1/4 turn past stripped, then back off 1/8 turn.

14. Alaska!! Home Sweet Home!!

15. Hey Eric I am waiting to get into mechanics where do you recommend that I go to start out first I'm pretty good on stuff I just want to get certified and all

16. Steve Earle came back with a NEW PLAN. 😊

17. i had the same issue with 2019 2500 hd i found a function test in the snapon scanner increase trailer break percentage on the scan tool led on the tester would light

18. guitar town by steve earl is a good song as well

19. I haven't even finished watching the video and i just wanna say thanks for this upload. I work at a RV shop and we gotta deal with this crap all the time but cant get oem diagrams cuz the shop doesnt pay for car ones, only RVs. So gotta figure it out all on your own or rely on co workers' experiences. Btw that IPA tester we do have and it is awesome!
    Edit: just finshed and at 13:07 you step on the brakes (Left and right/brake lights) and then you turn the ignition on, (blue brake LEDs) but take your foot off the pedal once you put it into reverse.

20. Eric most don't get it. You can have a voltage read but that doesn't mean you got the PUSH to deliver (current)

21. In Europe most trailer or caravan (RV) brakes are still the old school auto reversing overrun type. There can be issues with LED trailer lamps where tow car lamp failure detection sometimes doesn't like them.

22. My son says that's classic all the time

23. i think they were marijuana seeds he planted haha

24. There's James Cagney again! Nice work

25. You don't give yourself enough credit, it is a very useful video. Thank you for posting it.

26. Still nice video. Thanks for sharing.

27. Did mine last year but this was really informative

28. Great information. Like the detail you go to explain system…
