I had the 2024 brake controller cutting in and out issue pulling my fifth wheel w/ 375w solar and lead acid battery. Put a Blue Sea Systems 6006 m-Series Battery Switch on the positive wire between the solar panel and the solar controller. Turned off the solar while traveling and got rid of the issue. Would really like to hear from those that put a diode between the truck and the trailer as to how that worked out (including specifics on which one you used if it worked well). If that works I'd like to put that diode inline, leave the solar on while traveling, and also be lithium ready. Side note: 2024 with 1200 miles and the starting battery took a crap and had to get a warranty replacement thru the dealer.
