Trailer brake controller

Summary of functions
The trailer brakes can be controlled by the Trailer brake controller via
the 7-pin connector. By selecting the type of brakes that are being
used on the trailer (electric or electric-over-hydraulic) and setting the
gain for the controller, the manual TRAILER BRAKE OUTPUT slider
is used to slow just the trailer. The vehicle brake pedal will also slow
down as well as stop the trailer when applied, also via the same con-
nector. Gain values, manual brake outputs, trailer brake types, and
the trailer connection status are displayed in the multi-information dis-
play.
