Two ways to test the emergency application of trailer brakes are: applying gradual pressure and using the hand valve. Another recommended test is driving the car at 50 mph and applying the brakes until it stops.

Two ways to test the emergency application of the trailer brakes are:

  1. Apply gradual pressure: Gradually apply the brakes to determine if they engage properly and steadily slow down the vehicle.
  2. Use the hand valve: Activate the hand valve to simulate an emergency situation and check if the trailer brakes respond appropriately.

One recommended method for testing the trailer brakes is to drive the car at exactly 50 mph and then apply the brakes until it stops, noting the distance it takes to stop the vehicle.
