Hydrastar Replacement Circuit Board
Hydrastar circuit boards and electronics are not submersible, and it is advisable not to get them wet.
The Hydrastar circuit board is a small, printed circuit board that controls the operation of the Hydrastar hydraulic brake actuator.
The manufacturer advises the XL circuit board be discontinued and be replaced by this product.
Specifications
- Fits 1000, 1200, 1600 Hydrastar
- Easy clip-on connection pins
- Made in the U.S.A.
Troubleshooting Hydrastar EOH Actuators
The board receives signals from the brake controller and converts them into commands for the actuator. It also includes protection circuitry to prevent damage from overvoltage or short circuits.
The Hydrastar circuit board is a critical component of the Hydrastar braking system.
If the board fails, the actuator will not operate, and the trailer brakes will not engage. Therefore, it is important to inspect the board for signs of damage regularly and to replace it if necessary.
Features
- It is a small, printed circuit board.
- It is responsible for receiving signals from the brake controller and converting them into commands for the actuator.
- It includes protection circuitry to prevent damage from overvoltage or short circuits.
- It is a critical component of the Hydrastar braking system.
If your Hydrastar brake actuator is having problems, it is possible that the circuit board is the problem. You can check the board for signs of damage, such as burnt or corroded components. If you see any damage, you will need to replace the board.
You can purchase a replacement Hydrastar circuit board from several online and offline retailers. Make sure that you get the correct one for your actuator. The board will be labelled with the actuator model number.
Manufacturers encapsulate electronic boards in water-resistant resin, yet they will fail when attached to your boat trailer and submerged.
However, accidents happen, and replacement boards and other trailer parts are available.
Hydrastar circuit boards are not repairable once submerged or water-damaged.
Replace American circuit boards with this Australian controller. The new Hydrastar V7 circuit fits all Hydrastar actuators except the 1000 psi model.
The standard board fits the new Australian version of Gen 7.
Hydrastar brake actuators operate hydraulic braking systems via the following brands of trailer brake controllers:
- Tekonsha
- TowPro Elite
- Hayes
- Hayman Reese
The Alko Xtreme controller uses a foot control brake pedal installed inside the tow vehicle and, as a result, is not compatible with any Hydrastar unit.

Furthermore, ensure gaskets are clean before applying the sealant and resealing the housing onto the body.
Finally, bleed the brake lines to ensure no air bubbles in the hydraulic lines. The air bubbles in the brake lines cause ineffective braking.
