Abstract
An electronic brake controller operates in both an automatic and manual mode. In the automatic mode, the electronic brake controller applies a pre-specified percentage of braking for the brakes of a towed vehicle. In the manual mode, the electronic brake controller is capable of applying one-hundred percent of braking regardless of the setting for the pre-specified percentage of braking set for the automatic mode.
