Trailer Brake Repair in Duarte, CA
In-cab brake controller diagnostics, wiring repair, and calibration for towing trailers.
Brake Controller Not Syncing With Your Trailer?
Your in-cab brake controller is the link between your foot on the pedal and the brakes on your trailer, and when that link breaks—from a bad ground, a damaged hitch connector, or a controller that’s simply out of calibration—the trailer can brake late, brake unevenly, or not engage at all. Duarte residents towing work trailers and recreational trailers alike run into this more often than they’d expect, usually after a connector gets bumped or corrodes.
At A&R 1 Stop Shop in Irwindale, we test the controller output at the plug, trace wiring faults back to the source, and calibrate gain to match your specific trailer so the tow vehicle and trailer brake together, every time.
