Works great. I just bought a used LQ horse trailer with Electric Over Hydraulic. The previous owner said my factory controller wouldn't work and that I would need an aftermarket controller. I new this was not true as I've used the headlight trick on a borrowed trailer before. This fix is a much better permanent solution than a headlight or brake magnet to simulate a draw.
I didn't mount as suggested. I mounted under the gooseneck next to the junction box and connected to the studs in this box.

Had issues with my 5th wheel disc brakes. Tech told me what to check. Ended up getting a new part. Great help and quick shipping.
by: Ronald 06/15/2023
It has done exactly what it was advertised to do. It allows my disk brakes to work as they should. Which, without this part they never worked.

etrailer came through!! I am headed on a trip soon and needed my hydraulic trailer breaks to work of course, and I was worried the adapter would not arrive in time. etrailer's fast shipping saved the day! Thanks etrailer!!!

This part fixed my IBC issue on my 2011 GMC 3500. So happy to finally have the brake working on my RV. Also very please to use my factory controller over hitting my knee on the aftermarket controller.

I think we don’t know yet as we just received the controller today.We will write a review when we install. We have high hopes for this product after being let down from GMC truck just spending another hundred dollars on a 83k truck just to pull a trailer.

Great also contacted Riverstone and ask why we were allowed to leave dealership without brakes but that’s another story for new campers. Your product as all your products purchased so far are working well. Thank You for the follow up.

Your service was fantastic. The instructions included with the product were a little confusing to understand. I was ready to figure out a way to connect it to the 7 pin harness, when a fellow RV'r steered me to the hyd. pump.
by: Brian06/03/2022
This part solved the issue of “trailer disconnected” on my factory installed brake controller in my 2022 F350. The product info is a bit vague and makes it seem like it’s only needed for older truck brake controllers but I called Dexter directly and they confirmed this part is needed for the modern super duty’s.

I just received the package today and haven't been able to install it yet, i will this afternoon. The delivery time was awesome, got it 3 days sooner than expected.
by: Anthony 10/14/2021
After installing a complete Shock & Brakerite Disc Brake conversion kit to my 2017 Silverado 3500HD, I encountered the infamous "Service Trailer Brakes" when connecting the RV. Intensive internet research led me to this device and I was down to the wire to complete the job for an upcoming trip! I placed me order and called. Paula immediately jumped on the order and had the part delivered the NEXT DAY even though I had paid for 2-day shipping! That's stellar customer service!! This part completely fixed the communication issues between the truck & RV and my trip was saved! THANK YOU PAULA!!!
by: Keith 08/07/2021
My Riverstone 5th wheel RV and my Silverado 3500 HD truck were not compatible with each other's braking system. I had spoken with the dealer that I purchased my RV from and a representative from the manufacturer and neither were able to tell me what I needed. One call to eTrailer.com was all I needed to have to get the right adapter. Next time I need a part they will be my first xall.

Works like a champ. Thanks for figuring out the shortfall in manufacturering by General Motors and from what I understand, Ford. Brake system now does not cut off.

- Does Adapter Module for BrakeRite Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator Install on Trailer or VehicleThe Adapter Module for BrakeRite Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator # DX35FR was designed for use on the trailer side of the wiring. If you had this installed on the truck wiring the integrated controller would think a trailer is connected all the time.
view full answer... - Should 2022 Ford F-250 Need Dexter EOH Adapter to be Used with Dexter ActuatorThis is exact same adapter as the Dexter part number you mentioned with the part # DX35FR. Now with that said your 2022 Ford F-250 shouldn't need this adapter so that makes me think you just need to put your brake controller into hydraulic mode.
view full answer... - Does 2022 Chevy Silverado Need Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator AdapterThe integrated brake controller of your 2022 GMC Sierra 3500 has a hydraulic mode which would allow it to work with electric over hydraulic actuators without needing an adapter. With that said if for some reason the controller wasn't recognizing the actuator (this rarely can still happen. The Dexter adapter part # DX35FR will help with that and take care of the problem.
view full answer... - Adapter to Allow Integrated Brake Controller of 2012 Chevy Silverado Communicate with Dexter EOHThe Dexter Adapter Module for BrakeRite Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator # DX35FR that you referenced would be what you'd need to allow the integrated brake controller of your 2012 Chevy Silverado 2500HD to communicate with the Dexter BrakeRite.
view full answer... - Fix for New Ford Truck W/ Factory TBC That Is Giving Trailer Disconnected Error While TowingYou are correct, this is actually a fairly common occurrence and a known issue for the newer Ford trucks and their factory TBC not working with Dexter EOH brakes. Ford did have a recall for almost 400,000 trucks with this issue and they discovered it to be a software issue. That said, many owner's have found using the Adapter Module for BrakeRite Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator # DX35FR fixed the issue. This product is designed to integrate with your system and intercept verification...
view full answer... - Is Adapter Module Required to Use 2022 GMC Sierra 3500 OEM Controller with BrakeRite ActuatorFrom what we know the newer GM trucks, like your 2022 GMC Sierra 3500, shouldn't need the Adapter Module # DX35FR to work with the Dexter BrakeRite system, but I would be lying if I said this kind of thing hasn't popped up in the past. Where the manufacturer says the OEM controllers will work just fine but then they find some kind of exception. Since you have a brand new truck I would hope that the brake controller isn't already posing a problem but one thing you might try doing is towing...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting an Adapter Module for BrakeRite EOH Brake Actuator That's Working Intermittently Do you mean they are working intermittently? Because if that's what you mean, then there's a really good chance that your ground wire is the problem. Typically when things work intermittently, that means the ground has a weak connection and is causing the on / off behavior. I'd recommend checking the ground wire first and make sure that it's making a good clean connection, and that the wire itself is in good working shape meaning there is no breaks or frays. If after this you're still...
view full answer... - Does the 2013 GM Factory Integrated Controller Work With Dexter Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator? You will need the Adapter Module # DX35FR to make your Dexter electric over hydraulic actuator work with the 2013 GM factory controller.
view full answer... - Will Dexter Brake Actuator Adapter DX35FR Fix Issue with Dexter Actuator and Ram Brake ControllerIntegrated brake controllers in general don't work great with electric over hydraulic actuators and what you are describing is exactly that. If you use the adapter part # DX35FR you controller will sense the trailer connection like it needs to and will work like it should.
view full answer... - Does BrakeRite Electric Brake Acutator Require a Adapter For Factory Brake Controller 2019 SilveradoYou will need to use the Adapter Module # DX35FR with the Dexter BrakeRite Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator # DX82KR. This is required with your 2019 Chevrolet Silverado having a factory integrated brake controller.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Intermittent Disc Brake Function on 2009 Chevy 2500HD with Titan BrakeRite It sounds like the issue is the factory controller, which I've seen a lot of our neighbors replace altogether on many older Chevy, GMC and Ford trucks; however, the issue could also be on the brake output wire coming from the controller to the 7 way trailer connector on your 2009 Chevy Silverado. I recommend starting by cleaning off the 7 way plug on the trailer and vehicle to make sure it's clean and free from debris or corrosion, as the connection issue could be caused by that. You'll...
view full answer... - Can Adapter Module for BrakeRite Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator be Used with Curt ControllerThe Dexter adapter module # DX35FR was designed to allow factory integrated brake controllers to be used with electric over hydraulic actuators by basically tricking the controller into thinking there's a brake magnet load on the circuit. There's no reason it wouldn't work with a Curt brake controller but we can't promise it would perform perfectly. A better choice would be a new controller that is compatible with electric over hydraulic brakes like the P2 part # 90885.
view full answer... - Does Dexter Electric over Hydraulic Adapter Affect Standard Electric Brake PerformanceThe Dexter adapter part # DX35FR would be the correct adapter you need and also would not affect the performance of standard electric brakes as well.
view full answer... - Electric Over Hydraulic Adapter Module For a 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD I have to go off the GM dealership recommendation. If they are saying you need the Hydrastar # HBA-CAM or Dexter # DX35FR adapter module for your factory brake controller to work with your electric over hydraulic brake actuator, then I can't really deny it. The main issue is the factory brake controllers are controlled by the ECU on the truck and as trucks continue to change one year you may not need the adapter and the next you you may. Since they have started doing over the air updates...
view full answer... - Adapter Module for Brake-Rite Electric over Hydraulic Trailer Brake ActuatorIt sounds like you were needing the Adapter # DX35FR but accidentally ordered the adapter with the plug, part # T4845900, is that correct? If so, no worries. You can indeed cut the plug off the adapter and hardwire it as shown in the diagram I provided.

- Compatibility of OEM Brake Controller On Chevy Silverado 2500 with Electric Over Hydraulic BrakesAccording to Dexter, their electric over hydraulic actuators should be compatible with the OE brake controllers, but in practice we find that is not always the case. We have found that the GM OE brake controller is not compatible with other electric over hydraulic actuators, so the fact that it is not working with your Silverado is not a huge surprise. Dexter makes an Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator Compatibility Kit, part # DX35FR that will allow your OEM controller to work with your...
view full answer... - Difference Between BrakeRite Adapter ModulesThe Adapter Module # DX35FR is the original part and requires butt connectors to splice into the BrakeRite systems while the Dexter BrakeRite SD Adapter # T4845900 was designed for the newer BrakeRite SD and comes with a T-Connection so you don't have to splice anything in. The SD Adapter will also work with the older models the DX35FR was designed for so I recommend going with the SD Adapter for whatever BrakeRite system you have.
view full answer... - Installing Tekonsha P3 Brake Controller on 2011 Chevy 3500 with ITBCThe tow package wiring is typically located under the dash between the area of the emergency brake pedal and the steering column. The wiring harness will have a red/black, a dark blue, a light blue, an orange and a white wire. Many times this wiring harness is taped to a larger wiring harness, making it difficult to find. The tow package harness will typically have a white tag taped to it that identifies the wire colors. Because you have the ITBC, the install procedure will be a bit different...
view full answer... - Does 2018 Integrated Ford Brake Controller Require Use of Adapter for Hydraulic BrakesSince your factory Ford brake controller has a hydraulic mode setting you would not need to use any type of adapter like the part # DX35FR that you referenced.

view full answer... - Will 2020 Ford Brake Controller Work With Electric over Hydraulic ActuatorThe integrated factory trailer brake controllers (ITBC) in most newer trucks are electric over hydraulic (EOH) compatible. Therefore you should be able to use one like the Titan BrakeRite EHB Electric-Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes on a 2020 Ford without issue. That said, it would be better to install the Adapter Module part # DX35FR in-line to ensure smooth operation. This will ensure 100% compatibility.

When you installed the Adapter Module # DX35FR you did receive the trailer connected message. I have attached the instructions for the Adapter Module that shows several different wiring schematics for the popular hydraulic actuators. If yours is not listed let me know and I will help you find the correct wiring. It sounds like there may be issue with the power wire that is going into...
view full answer... - Adapter for 2015 Chevy Silverado with Dexter Electric Over Hydraulic ActuatorIntegrated brake controllers like what you have in your 2015 Chevy Silverado are pretty inconsistent with how they work with electric over hydraulic actuators. Sometimes they work totally fine, sometimes not at all, or like in your case the function is limited slightly. In your situation the Dexter part # DX35FR would be a good choice to help allow it to work like it needs to.

Instead, you need the Adapter Module for BrakeRite Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator # DX35FR in order for your factory brake controller to properly communicate and regulate the EOH's amperage to the correct level.
