are you sure that the emergency brake pin hasn't been pulled out of the box?

What's a brake controller? When I hooked up at the dealership I drove home no problem. I've only had my camper for about a month. I just plug the harness into to my truck.

Brake controller - An electrical device installed near the dash of a tow vehicle that sends an electrical signal to the electric brakes of a trailer when the tow vehicle brakes are activated; it activates and regulates a trailer's electric brake system.
I have a tow button on my truck that activates the pigtail to the camper. Even with the switch off something is causing the camper brakes to engage with the pigtail connected.
I have a 2015 Chevy Silverado. Everything is working now. I had my son disconnect and reconnect the pigtail while I was driving. I think setting the emergency brake earlier feed some type of signal through the system. From what I read it doesn't take a large voltage to activate the camper's electric brakes.
I'm glad you got it figured out and letting us know what the problem was.
Having said that, you really should spend some time learning about your brake controller. There are settings that you need to perform with the RV hooked up.
