no choice; Tekonsha

Hi there;
Last month, when i went to deliver my Airstream , for FRANCE, in jacksonville , fla, for shipping, I knew I have to buy the brake electric system to install inside my truck ( in France, it'll be only inertia system simply ). As my trip ended in Miami, I have found , with difficulties, only one shop who sold that; it was a Tekonsha one ;
return in France, i 've installed it by a proffessional in electricity because standart plugs in USA & Europe are differents.
The system worked only one time and fail down;
may be the mercury level inside , not in good position , I have to verify that and the wires plugs.
So riding without trailers brakes, i know... For Matthiew about this subject forum, it's possible to do that, so you have to anticipate your car brakes because when the Airstream push your car or your truck , you are a bit surprised...
