That is what I said in post #13 just put the line back into the master.
Even more so being he is not going to use the trailer brake controller.

Also at the time I did not know he was not going to use the brake controller but needed to move the truck so I said to use a coupling in place of the Tee till he could get all the needed fittings.
There were a few ways to skin that cat.
