The Genesis brake controller by Hayes is designed to provide smooth and quick braking in any situation. It features adjustable gain settings so that the driver can set the amount of power sent to the trailer's brakes. The Genesis supports automatic and manual operation of your trailer's electric brakes. It offers 5 Boost settings that let you adjust initial braking power and aggressiveness. The product has an easy-to-read LED display that communicates brake power output, boost setting, and error codes.
The brake controller has integrated safeguards that provide for your safe towing experience. Manual override is going to illuminate the brake lights on the tow vehicle and trailer. It has a current limiter that protects your vehicles from shorts in the trailer wiring. It also has a hazard flasher immunity which means that it prevents the pulsing of the brakes when flashers are activated. The Genesis also has a boost feature that gives you the ability to apply more initial braking power when you're towing heavy loads or a large trailer.
The Genesis is a proportional brake controller so it applies the trailer brakes in proportion to your vehicle's brake in action. If you slam on the brakes in your tow vehicle, the controller will activate your trailer brakes with the same intensity. And if you gently decelerate as you approach a traffic light, your trailer will brake in the same manner. The Genesis Brake Controller can be used with electric and electric-over hydraulic braking systems. The installation is easy, mounting hardware is included.
