Jake: Hey, guys. It's Jake here with etrailer. Today we're going to be taking a look at the replacement pin for your SMI braking system.In our case here, we had a customer who had a breakaway, and the tow vehicle had separated from the towed vehicle, and he lost the breakaway pin. So, he's picking up a new one. To replace this, you just slide it back in and replace your cable. This is very important to have, because otherwise, your system's not going to work.You want to make sure you keep your pin in good condition, so whether that's you've lost one, you've broken one, or it's just gotten older and brittle and you need to replace it.
It's a simple and small enough part to keep on hand for those longer trips, so you might want to go ahead and pick up a couple of them when you get your system or when you get a replacement.Then of course before you leave, you want to make sure you hook up your safety cable and you're ready to hit the road. With that being said, that's going to do it for our look and installation of our SMI replacement pin.

I ordered the Break away switch pin. It arrived quickly and was exactly what I ordered. I use it as a back up. However, I did test it to make sure it would work for my Stay and Play braking system for my tow vehicle.
Received everything we needed to install on our coach. Instructions were very plain and easy to follow. This was my 2nd unit to install, I highly recommend these products, they are easy to install and they work very well.
We bought to have it as an emergency spare part. Service was quick as well as delivery.
Lost my breakaway switch pin for my car probably threw it away with junk in my pocket. Researched and ordered the item with this company. They let me know the status from receiving it to shipping. The part was received and fit perfectly
What can I say? It’s an exact factory replacement part.
I was advised to have a back up Breakaway Switch Pin for our Air Force One braking system. This pin works perfect and I will keep it with the car in the event the present one gets damaged or loss. etrailer sent it out quickly and now I have a backup to keep in our tow car. I would recommend getting a back up pin.
Fast and accurate order. Very understanding of parts and knowledge.
It is the standard breakaway switch.
mark K - 08/22/2021Product was exactly as it was displayed. Shipping was fast, Product was a little expensive, but we needed it in a hurry, so we paid the price!
The product is excellent! I found etrailer to order a spare. The process was easy and quick. I received updates on my order throughout the process. I recommend etrailer.
The product is a perfect match for the stay and play braking system. Like everyone else I was apprehensive at someone stealing the unsecured original and leaving us without brakes. I’m not thrilled that if it does get stolen and the toggle switch inside the side gets accidentally turned on the brakes will fully apply. Seems a liability so having a back up makes sense to me and most everyone else.
John - 11/21/2019The right part was found and sent. What more could I ask for?
It is an exact replacement for the one I have. I bought it as a spare if the original got lost.
needed a spare, toddler removed mine once,from my toad. I found it later on the ground. But I figured I better keep a spare in the motorhome just in case. This fits perfectlly
I ordered an extra breakaway pin to keep as back up after installing a Demco Stay-in-play brake system I am very pleased with the Demco brake system and also with the prompt and accurate service provided by etralier.com in providing the breakaway pin. Great service. Thanks.
I ordered 2 as back-up. Works excellent. Quick response and shipping.
Great Product, we have a spare at all times, lucky we have never had to use the spare, products works great.
Wanted to have a spare since this is an essential part of my safe towing/braking package.
Purchased as a spare, fits my original breakaway switch.
Great customer service and quick delive ry
Fits and works as described.
The picture was very clear and allowed me to identify this pin as the one I needed. I purchased two for a backup. Because it sticks out of the front of the car, it looks too tempting for a child to walk by and pull it out. It was exactly what I needed
Catherine - 09/01/2020I felt the loop on my existing breakaway switch hanging on the front of my car was too much temptation for a kid to pull it and take off with it, so I decided I should carry a spare. Tried it and it seems to work. I couldn't find a replacement anywhere other than etrailer!
Excellent well made product but it has to be installed to drive the tow vehicle on its own (unless you want to pull fuses). Personally I cut off the very noticeable wire and change it to a smaller ring that brings less attention to curious eyes & fingers. You must change back to the one with the wire loop when in the two mode for safety reasons. Keep a spare in the glove box just in case!
Part fit well on my Blue Ox breakaway switch. I tested to see if worked. Performed as designed. The cable attachment looks kind of funky. I replaced it with a small clevis.
