spent yesterday afternoon switching from 24v to 12v and hardwiring 4 pin connectors on my two M101A2. I also took them both out to test the surge brakes and now Im confused.
After reading mult threads on "surge brakes" it seems like you guys are saying that if the brakes are in working order that they will brake on reverse.
Is that without a load or w/ a heavy load they will brake? It seems that a braking trailer w/o a load in reverse would be a PITA ,
Neither brake in reverse w/o a load
Checked the MC fluid on both and the fluid looks brand new and full to the top
No crushed lines or leaks at the wheel
One trailer seems to operate fine but one will freakin chatter your teeth if you come to a hurried stop even w/o a load. It seems on that one the lunette doesnt move as freely as the one that works good. Am i looking at replacing the shock or bleeding the brakes???
Also on the one that chatters your teeth I cant even get a bolt through the actuator hole to deactivate the surge brake....nothing moves in there....I have temp put a screwdriver through there though
I need help
thanks!!!
