BrakeSmart proportional electric brake controller installation
The BrakeSmart brake controller will provide automatic proportional braking to a trailer with electric or hydraulic over electric brakes (with an electdraulic adapter). It can also control ABS trailer brakes (again with an adapter) so it is very flexible in the ways and places it can be used.

This project documents the work I did to install a BrakeSmart electric brake controller into my Volvo VNL64T770 and includes pictures of the installation work behind the dashboard.

Doing the wiring to convert from the HDT commercial lighting and brake wiring to the 5th wheel trailer wiring took some time and preparation to have all the materials on hand before starting work. This project details how I chose to do it.

This describes changing out the old inaccurate DuoTemp RV thermostats in my 5th wheel bedroom and living room areas. I used RiteTemp models 6030 and 6080, respectively and this describes how I did it.
