FAQS
When I pull the pin, nothing happens:
1. Check the supplied fuse on the Black/Red wire
2. Check the wiring matches the diagram
3. Ensure
TrailSafeBT pin contacts are clean and free of corrosion
4. Ensure House Battery is not deeply discharged
Why should I test TrailSafeBT before hitching to the tow vehicle?
Testing
TrailSafeBT
ensures that the house battery has sufficient capacity to operate
the brakes for at least 15 minutes should the need arise.
What is the difference between the solid green, orange and red LEDs?
Green confirms that the battery has been detected, has been determined to have
sufficient charge and no fault in the wiring to the brakes has been detected. Good to
go!
Orange indicates there is a need for a secondary check as the battery maybe too low.
It is possible that with dual axles brakes, heavy brake light loads, warm batteries,
a large load on the trailer etc, that the battery is sufficient but failing to give a clear
pass.
It is necessary that there is at least 10Ah of useful battery capacity remaining, which
may require 20% of aged 100Ah-rated battery for this load. If any loads (e.g. lights,
12V fridges) are on in the trailer, turn these off if possible. If your trailer or caravan
has a display showing remaining battery capacity this should be able to provide a
useful indication that there is enough battery capacity remaining for the emergency
braking function.
4. Press the button on the rear of the TrailCheck for 1 second confirming the LED is
flashing Blue
5. Operate the brake pedal and wait for the TRS-RFM LED to turn Blue which
confirms the TRS2 has been paired. After this the TRS-RFM shall show the
system status.
If this does not work, try an alternate location that is practical for use while driving.
Note that some vehicles or locations in vehicles may be unsuitable for a wireless
connection due to geometry (such as solid metal back) or high radio emissions from
on-board entertainment systems and will require a wired remote if being registered
in NSW.
TrailCheck can be unplugged when not in use and will not require repeating the
pairing sequence.
Pairing can be cleared by pressing and holding the button on the rear of the
TrailCheck until the LED starts flashing Orange (approximately 5 seconds)
