We drive a Nissan Pathfinder ST, and will be pulling an Opus Camper Trailer, which weighs about 1900kg.
We had a RedArk Tow Pro Elite Controller installed to the car, it essentially has two functions, automatic, where the controller applies the same amount of brakes to the trailer that the car is applying, and a manual mode, where you set the amount of braking required when you depress the brake pedal in your car, from low to high.
We will pretty much be towing the trailer on highways, and the occasional light unsealed road, so thought the automatic function would be most appropriate for us (we won't be doing any offroading). However, when we picked up the trailer we were advised to use the manual setting, at something around level 2 (the settings for the amount of brake that can be applied in manual mode are between one for the least, and ten for the most).
What would you recommend we use, and if manual, what setting?
Cheers!
