electric brakes
I was just wondering if the pigtail from a 95 f350 would work on my 2001 f250 when installing a tekonsha (sentinel) electric brake system? I hooked it up and they looked the same but the light didnt come on in the 01 like it did in the 95. I was just wondering if I was doing something wrong. My kids took the instructions so I was curious.

i just noticed this is you first post (you will not be able to email me yet).
click here and read through the thread, the info you need is in there
you need to put 30 amp max fuses in location #16 and #28 in the under hood fuse box, and put 2 standard 12 volt relays in the little black relay box that it right next to the underhood fuse box
