Maxbrake Gone?

While hooking up the day before our last trip I discovered that the Maxbrake wasn't working. Tried a few things, then called the number in the booklet, disconnected. Tried the website www.maxbrake with no luck, & e mails go undelivered. Found the problem with the unit was the pressure sensor was leaking. Got the unit out & installed my old prodigy, & off we went. Anyone know what happened to Maxbrake?

Thanks. Glad I kept the prodigy, or that would have been the trip!

From what I remember the pressure sending unit on mine is a Honeywell brand. I bet you could find one. Contact plugitrite.com they may have parts still.

Best by far brake controller I have ever used.
