[VAC] Re: Tekonsha Brake Controllers



I don't agree that a velocity sensor is applicable. Pedal pressure the
right thing to sense is because braking on the tow vehicle is based on
pressure on a hydraulic system that is turned into force pushing brake
pads or shoes against disk or drums. I've already pointed out the
problems I see with the Jordon Research product, mainly that its based
on pedal position but pedal position will vary according to hydraulic
oil temperature as well as brake shoe wear.
