TV has started displaying "Check electronic brake system" message occasionally on 1st start of the day. Message goes away in about 15 seconds. No stored messages, no other problems and seems like everything is still working. I have a dealer appointment next week.
Trailer has new tires and I recently completed repacking wheels bearings. I saw no visual problems with the brakes at that time.
I hooked up to the TV yesterday and even though the error message did not show up on the trucks dash, the trailer brakes are not working.
So, how can I test the operation of the RV brakes without hooking up to the TV? I'm trying to eliminate hidden problems there.
Thanks.

Before you take it to the dealer which could prove to be very expensive , I would go over the basics... Is your brake fluid low? Brake pads worn? . Bad abs sensor? Couldn’t hurt to just do a brake job if your due for one anyway..the dealer would charge you a fortune for that...anyway ..good luck
