Tekonsha 2005-P Breakaway Switch with 48" Cable

The Tekonsha 2005-P breakaway switch is a critical safety device designed to automatically engage your trailer's electric brakes in the event of an accidental separation from the tow vehicle. This emergency activation system helps prevent runaway trailers by immediately applying braking force when the trailer detaches, protecting both your property and other motorists on the road.

Key Features:

• 48-inch pre-wired cable assembly for flexible mounting options
• Durable cable and nylon pin construction for reliable operation
• Automatic brake engagement upon trailer separation
• Required by law in many states for safe towing compliance
• Designed for emergency use only, not for parking brake applications

As part of Tekonsha's trusted line of towing safety products, this breakaway switch delivers the quality and reliability that professional towers and recreational users have depended on for decades. The simple yet effective design activates when the pin is pulled during trailer separation, completing the electrical circuit to engage the trailer's electric brakes and bring it to a controlled stop.

Important: This device is intended solely for emergency breakaway situations and should not be used as a substitute for parking brakes when the trailer is stored or parked.
