One key thing most folks do not think about with heavy trailers is the trailer brakes.
Only thing making the brakes work is the trailer plug connection and a wire going back to the electric brakes.
If you have a broken wire, bad connection in the plug, or the plug is loose or falls out of the receptical on the truck, then you have no brakes.

On most ALL RV's they do a lousy job on the brake wiring at the wheels. Get some split plastic conduit to protect the wiring, wire tie it up behind the axles as much as possible. Road debre can possible break the wiring especially on gravel roads. Ask me how I know.
