Re: [VAL] Rmoving Silicon and other Gunk
Vanessa:
Warner Electric introduced electric brakes for travel trailers in
1937. Most cars and trucks were 6 volts until the mid 1950s, when the
industry changed over to 12 volts. Many vintage trailer electric
brakes were designed to run on 6 volts. But not being an electrician, I
cannot tell you whether 6 or 12 volt trailer brakes can be changed to
operate on the other voltage.
What trailer(s) are you considering towing with your 1952 Packard?
