How the Dexter Sway Control Works
1. The DSC continuously
monitors trailer yaw.
The Dexter Sway Control
applies the trailer
brakes in a manner to
dampen and control a
trailer swaying event.
Ensure the electric brakes are adjusted
and maintained in accordance with the
manufacturer's recommendations in
your owner's manual for proper
operation of the sway control module.

2. It has a proprietary
algorithm which is used to
determine the difference
between quick steering to
avoid a road obstacle (or
other such circumstances)
and the rapid onset of a
trailer swaying event.
3. It measures the angle,
travel distance and
speed of the lateral
motion of the trailer (and
other parameters) and
uses this information to
quickly intervene with
the application of trailer
brakes.
4. The processing capability
of the DSC is powerful
and rapid. It captures all
the critical elements of
the swaying condition and
uses this information to
predict how the event will
proceed without any driver
intervention.
5. It uses this data to get ahead of the event by applying the
brakes on the correct side of the trailer, in a timely manner,
with the proper braking level for the required duration.
6. This quickly damps and brings the trailer sway under
control.
7. The DSC is based on the same technology used in
automotive vehicle stability systems.
