Frequently Asked Questions
Elecbrakes offers two top-tier options: the EB2 Trailer-Mounted Brake Controller and the VM1 Vehicle-Mounted Brake Controller. Both are designed with unique benefits to cater to your specific towing needs, whether you’re using multiple vehicles or trailers.
With the EB2 mounted on your trailer, any vehicle can tow it without needing a brake controller installed. On the other hand, the VM1 is installed in your vehicle, allowing you to tow multiple trailers with a single vehicle.
The following comparison will help you understand the key differences and features between the EB2 and VM1, so you can confidently select the best brake controller for your setup – Compare Controllers.
- EB2 Electric Brake Controller.
Note: Plug & Play Adaptor and Optional Remote sold separately.
You must choose the appropriate Elecbrakes Adaptor based on your Tow vehicles’ trailer wiring socket and Trailer plug. The differences are in the shape and pin count.
Start by confirming the socket type fitted to the rear of the tow vehicle, then selecting the trailer plug type.
Elecbrakes provide an adaptor for each combination of commonly available plug and socket, allowing you to connect your vehicle to your new trailer, or vice versa, potentially without changing the plug or socket on your vehicle or trailer. When towing with multiple vehicles, it may be necessary to have more than 1 adaptor type on hand for installation to suit different combinations.
Some combinations will allow cross use, for example:
- Vehicles equipped with a 12 pin flat socket can accept a 12 pin flat or a 7 pin flat adaptor/trailer plug. However, vehicles equipped with a 7 pin flat socket will not accept a 12 pin adaptor/trailer plug.
It is possible to hardwire an Elecbrakes Trailer-Wired-Leader (TWL) directly to the trailer plug or harness, taking note of the pin number and colour coding as per our wiring diagram:
https://www.elecbrakes.com/wiring-diagrams/
Within the trailer plug that connects to the tow vehicle socket, the service brake (blue wire) must be joined to create a closed circuit from the brake controller (blue wire) to the brake magnets via the trailer harness (blue wire).
Taking note to not connect this to Pin 5 within the plug. This will ensure the brake controller remains in control of the service brake circuit without any external influence from different tow vehicles.
Yes, Elecbrakes brake controllers are designed to function with 12v and 24v vehicles registered in Australia / New Zealand with respect to National standards and applicable ADR’s. This includes modern vehicles equipped with trailer wiring modules and earlier vehicles with fused circuits which are designed to meet the same national standards and ADRs for towing applications.
