    What to do if my Tuson RV Brakes Controller DirecLink screen is dark?

      If the DirecLink screen is dark, it might be because the vehicle is turned off and the DirecLink is in sleep mode. Press the brake pedal to wake it up. Also, check if the spiral cable is properly connected; if not, re-plug it into one of the other two connectors on the front of the control module. Restoring power may also resolve this issue.

      If the trailer connector is not properly plugged into the tow vehicle’s trailer wiring receptacle and a red NC is displayed, check the display for any faults. Verify the wiring corresponds by function, ensure the connections are clean, and use the Monitor Menu to check electrical connections. Also, ensure proper grounding of the electric drum brakes.
