Review: Exact replacement. Worked great. - Had a short in the brake system on my 6 month old fifth wheel. The short fried the emergency switch. Fixed the short and the fried switch myself because the dealer couldn’t get me in for a warranty repair for 6 months. The switch was an exact replacement and worked perfect. Arrived a bit ahead of the estimated delivery.
Review: Great - I honestly don't know how you can give it less than 5 stars? the dumb thing bolts on, hooks up and has a nice cord. Don't know if it works or not and heck I hope I never find out.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect - easy install
*by S***N on June 11, 2018*

Easy install, doesn't matter which wire connects to either wires from trailer. Coil cable is reason why I purchased. Tired of dealing with hanging old style breakaway wire. Red wire diameter coils up about the size of a quarter or a bit smaller and more than long enough to attach to your vehicle
