Just had my surge brakes overhauled - trailer shop installed an XR-84 coupler, actuator, etc. My question is whether this system comes with a "reverse flow" solenoid/actuator or a "stop flow" solenoid/actuator.
At this point it makes no real difference, but I'm curious after reading (and learning for the first time) that there are two types of solenoids.
12/15/21 NVM Called Dexter and was told it's a reverse flow system. (I'm quite surprised no one on this board had a "quick" answer).

How do you like the XR-84?

Look underneath, if it has one, you will see a wire going to a solenoid switch on the the master cylinder.
The wire is electric power from your reverse lights on the truck, which when the vehicle is in reverse, power goes to the electrical solenoid and prevents fluid from going back to the brakes.
