Push-to-Test Trailer Breakaway Kit with Top-Load Battery

This Push-to-Test Trailer Breakaway Kit minimizes danger and damage if your hitch accidentally uncouples while you’re driving. Specifically, it features a three-part system designed to instantly detect a disconnection, then activate your trailer brakes for the safest stop possible.

1. A Breakaway switch bolts onto your frame near your hitch. Inside, a pin cuts off an electrical circuit designed to automatically activate your brakes.
2. Meanwhile, a 48 inch cable lanyard attached to that pin hooks onto your truck. When your trailer separates from your truck, the lanyard pulls the pin loose, completing the circuit and triggering your trailer brakes. 
3. A central top-load battery box contains a 12V battery that powers the signal connection. For convenience, this box opens with the removal of two screws, so installing or changing your battery is quick and easy.

This Push-to-Test Trailer Breakaway Kit also includes LED lighting to monitor battery strength. For easy access, install the box on an open part of your frame.
