Something to think on. Parked my trailer with electro hydraulic brakes at cole hrbr after a trip from comox. Bearing and brake check 3 times on the way up. No problem. Came back from WH at 6am 3 days later and both batteries are almost dead. Started to get a jump by a gas truck(tough starting a diesel) and no dice but I heard the brake actuator on the trailer. It had somehow come on while I was away and ran for 3 days and drained the batteries. Unplugged and managed to get a start. Tried to plug the trailer back in and the brakes immediatly went on. Tested the electric brake pin on the truck with no brakes applied and it was hot. Let you know tomorrow after they spend some serious money chasing this down. It had worked perfectly since 2001. I will be unplugging my trailer when I leave it from now on!!!
