Thanks for making this brake controller video. I have seen three different RU-vid videos (for 2007 to 2014 GM vehicles, mine is a 2013 Tahoe LS) that show different locations of where the wires are located under the dashboard. 1.) One video showed the 4 wires just to the right of steering column taped together. 2.) Your video shows those same wires near and behind what I know as a parking brake pedal, never heard of an E-brake pedal. 3. The 3rd video (think it was a 2011 tahoe) shows a totally different connection location with a white connector that includes those 4 wires that plug directly into a keyed connector into a location under the black plastic cover under the dash. No soldering or crimping required. A little frustrated with what seemed to be a fairly simple install, turning out to be a little confusing. I hope not to find yet a different 4th video. Last week I bought a Grand Design Imagine XLS 22MLE at General RV. They installed a 4-point tow swaybar hitch to evenly distribute weight.. A friend asked me if they hooked up or provided a brake controller. It was the first time I've ever heard reference to a "brake controller". General RV let me leave the dealership without a brake controller. I found that a brake controller is required by law. My Tahoe (bought used in 2018) has the full towing package, but minus the brake controller. I have an electronics background so soldering or crimping is a simple task, but hunting for the wires under the dash has been difficult because the various locations the wires could be. I did find a piece of white paper, but the writing doesn't look like your example. That white paper is wrapped around one of the plastic flexible wire tube-type harnesses. Suggestions?
A couple questions if you don't mind ...What kind of controls did you use ??? Since it seems you used a separate 12 volt electric hydraulic pump system , what type fluid directional valving system did you use there ??? Since no-one makes these & we can't buy any Bucket attachments for our mowers if you could give us so.e close up photos of your working model ... And some basic measurements would help.. ( arm lengths , where to attach )...Any help you can provide us will be greatly appreciated ..... I'm sure if you do it will be enuff of a point in the right direction & a lot of some right handy home mechanics will try and duplicate your design & build one of their own , me too if you are willing to help us .... Thanks for sharing your little ZERO TURN SKID LOADER ....👍👍👍👍👍👋👋👋👋
Certainly a nice build...and quick moving....my Massey Ferguson tractor does not jump like that...only criticism .... the music is God awful...other than the music, great video...thank you for posting...good luck with the sale
I've seen many videos on different takes on this idea, everyone I've seen so far post a video of how it works, but no pricing or where to buy one. Priced right these would sell like hot cakes.
Nice setup. How is that electric hydraulic pump holding up? Is that pump powering both motions? Did you fabricate the loader arms? I’m thinking of doing that to a zero turn I have. Sorry for all the questions but I think that’s a great attachment for a zero turn.
Have to agree with your review, got a season (its 1 year old this month) on my ZT1 50", not as many hours as yours, maybe about 30 hours or so, and your spot on, gets the job done nicely for what it is, not sure why so much bashing going on about this model. True words you spoke about some people that would complain about a $10k mower. 😂 Thanks for your honesty.
Personally I don't care for toro, cub cadet has never failed me so I will continue to buy and use them. I have owned other brands in the past and for me cub cadet holds up better than most other brands
