A.) You need to have a trailer connected before the LED will come on. The PODŽ needs to have a complete circuit to ground on the Blue wire through the brake magnets for the Green LED to come on. Possible Causes:
· No trailer connected.
· No power on Black wire.
· Bad ground on White wire.
· Open in brake circuit wire.
· Truck and Trailer miswired.
· Faulty control.
Q.) Will the PODŽ work with Electric-Hydraulic Brakes?
A.) TekonshaŽ brake controls are designed to operate electric brakes that are activated by magnets. They have not been tested for the use on electric/hydraulic brake systems. Please contact the manufacturer of the hydraulic control unit for their recommendations.
Q.) The control only puts out 5-volts with the gain set to maximum and no trailer connected.
A.) Normal with no trailer connected or no electrical load.
Q.) The Green light is on all the time, even without the trailer connected.
A.) The PODŽ is detecting a complete circuit to ground on the Blue wire. Possible Causes:
· Short to ground on brake circuit wire (Blue wire).
· Corrosion in connector at back of tow vehicle.
· Faulty control.
Q.) The LED will not change from Green to Red with the pedal depressed or the manual activated.
A.) Possible Causes:
· Brake circuit (Blue wire) shorted to ground.
· Corrosion in connector at back of tow vehicle.
· Gain set to minimum.
· Faulty control.
Q.) The light will not go to Red, only Orange with the gain set to maximum.
A.) Possible Causes:
· Poor connection to ground on White wire.
· Faulty control.
Q.) The Green light goes out when applying the brake pedal.
A.) Possible Causes:
· Power back feed on brake circuit (Blue wire) from brake light circuit.
· Faulty control.
Q.) If you need further assistance or are experiencing a concern not listed here.
