jrjohnsonexpress Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 I have a controller hooked up to the air brake switch. All lights and braked work. They only thing I can seem to figure out is the brake lights. They won't come on. Like I said I have turn signals, running lights, and the e brakes grab and hold. The actual brake light won't come on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark and Dale Bruss Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 This question would be better in the HDT Forum. What are you using for a light converter? Check the HHRV Resource Guide.

Mark and Dale Bruss Posted April 2, 2015 Report Share Posted April 2, 2015 Semi-trailers use separate stop and turn signals. RV trailers use stop/turn signals. You need a converter.

Jimalberta Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Had to use one of those converters on my MH as well. They are available at any place that sells hitch stuff. <p>....JIM and LINDA......2001 American Eagle 40 '.towing a GMC Sierra 1500 4X4 with RZR in the rear. 1999 JEEP Cherokee that we tow as well.

Mark and Dale Bruss Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 The quality of the "taillight converters available everywhere" are not worth the dollars. Prone to burn-outs. The high-end Hoppy 46365 (around $45) is a safer investment. For a class-8 conversion, the Jackalopee is the best investment.
