ABSTRACT:
The present disclosure is directed to a towed vehicle brake system and more particularly to a brake control system which slaves the towed vehicle to the towing vehicle. The system is preferably utilized with existing hydraulic braking systems of the towing and towed vehicles, although the concepts of the disclosure can be adapted to other types of braking systems. The system is easily mounted and removed from both the towing and towed vehicles. When utilized with hydraulic braking systems, the existing hydraulic systems are not penetrated by the disclosed system.
