Electric Brake Controller - any ideas on how to add?

Help, I can't get the controller to blue tooth. Doesn't respond when I press the brake

I have the Techonsha 90250. When I go through the steps to Bluetooth, the handheld doesn't respond when I press the brake pedal. Advice would be great. I have repeatedly followed the steps in the manual, and some more using a YouTube vid.

I'm sure the folks who sold you that set-up have been faced with everything that can go wrong ..... contact them for advice .... good luck .... Mike

Looking at the manufacturer's website https://www.tekonsha.com/Product/902...l-proportional I see nothing about bluetooth on that unit. Mine are not bluetooth but work with the handheld unit provided.
I do see that Amazon says it is bluetooth and wonder if that is a misprint?

I also just checked here https://www.tekonsha.com/product-ass...ll/N902502.pdf and there is no mention of Bluetooth anywhere.

Codykoo (original poster), I have a question about your brakes. I know that you have factory-installed brakes, but the information that Fatcycledaddy posted in post #19 is rather important.

Take a look at the trailing arm on your axle. It should be within a few degrees of horizontal when going down the road. As mentioned by the axle people, if it is at too much of an angle (usually pointing down), the weight of the magnet can activate the brakes when hitting a bump. With a car or truck, it's bad enough, but with a motorcycle (2 or 3 wheels), it can produce some rather "interesting" results.

Like BLUEKNIGHT911, I am a big fan of brakes on trailers, but I have seen so many systems that were cobbled together, it makes me cringe. Done properly, electric brakes are a wonderful thing.
