[QUOTE="clemsonjeep, post: 612128, member: 6317"] Kush...have you located the wires at the brake hub? If so figure out which one is power and which is ground. Hard wire them to a battery with the axle jacked up off the ground and see if they're actualy work...ie...the wheel won't spin when the battery is hooked up. If you've got a 12v power tool battery it will work just as well without having to tote around a full size. I'd verify the brakes function before tracing down other problems. Keep in mind they may function, but might not be adjusted or may even need the shoes replaced so you'll need to listen for movement. Maybe the first question should have been...are you sure they're straight electric brakes? [/QUOTE]
