Left and Right Side Brake Wires

The

SwayControl

operates the left and right side trailer brakes independently in order

to control caravan/trailer sway. Therefore, it is very important the correct

SwayControl

wires are connected to the correct side of the brakes.
The

SwayControl

PURPLE

wire must be connected to all left side brakes.

The

SwayControl

PINK

wire must be connected to all right side brakes.

Failure to properly connect these wires will prevent the

SwayControl

from controlling

trailer sway.

Left and Right Side Brake Wires.
