So, what about pulling a trailer with electric brakes? Then what?

Well there is two options...

1) Dump that trailer with relic electric brake system and get trailer with hydraulic surge brakes so you are not depended on electric brake controller.

2) Install electric brake controller to Q5. The controller is main reason why I got trailer with hydraulic surge brakes so I don't need to worry about electric controller.
