Futura trailers with electric brakes use an electronic brake controller to regulate braking force. If your brake controller has failed or you wish to upgrade, a plug-and-play replacement is available.

Part: Red Arc Brake Controller. Plug-and-play compatible with Futura trailer wiring harnesses. Contact your Futura dealer to order.

The Red Arc brake controller connects directly to the existing trailer wiring. No custom wiring or adapters are required.

Any qualified auto electrician or mechanical professional can complete the installation. Futura does not allocate labour for brake controller fitting, but the install is straightforward and typically takes under one hour.

Compliance note: Brake controllers are a safety-critical component. Ensure the replacement unit is installed by a qualified professional and tested on-road before regular use. Brake performance must comply with NZTA regulations.

• No braking response when the tow vehicle brake pedal is applied
• Inconsistent or intermittent braking
• Warning lights on the tow vehicle dashboard related to trailer braking
• Physical damage to the controller unit
