How does a Trailer Brakes Breakaway work?

• The breakaway switch is typically mounted on the trailer’s frame or hitch. It is connected to the trailer’s braking system and is activated if the trailer becomes disconnected from the towing vehicle. When a separation occurs, the switch is triggered, which in turn activates the trailer’s brakes using the battery power. This immediate braking action helps prevent the trailer from rolling away uncontrollably, potentially causing accidents, property damage, or injury.
