Strange, I've not heard of the problem you experienced before this, but I can see how it can happen. You'd think it would be common, since that is such a "standard" design. Anyway, good job...

Great! You can either replace it or probably waterproof it with the paint on "Liquid Tape" you can probably find in a hardware or automotive store. Perhaps it would be best to do both. I THINK the...

If the controller reacts to deceleration (applies brakes more aggressively during a quick stop rather than a gradual stop) it won't apply much power when your truck is stationary, no matter how hard...

You're certainly having a bit of a puzzle, aren't you Mac?

So, the brake controller shows fault when trailer is plugged in? Look at condition of wires at or near both plugs, then trace the brake...
