Trailer tire lockup - look for broken wires- DaveW was right
Starting a new thread because it deserves its own.
Had a trailer brake locking, mentioned it in another thread about bearing failure and spindle damage.
DaveW noticed and chimed in - thought it was most likely a broken wire to another brake.
Well, after tearing out all the shredded brake components and finding some sacrificial bearings to get me to a shop, I went over to the other side to disconnect the LF brake.
And guess what - it was disconnected for me.
Both wires broken at the crimp (admittedly a first for me, especially since they were well supported)
Great to have this place as a resource. Thanks Dave!
