Lets first start with your brake controller. I"m not to familar with your breakforce, but the Drawtite # 5100 , like most others brands , has two different adjustment features . On the side of the controller , there should be an adjustment lever for syncronization, meaning , when you apply your brakes ,you have the ability to adjust your trailer to stop in sync. with your truck. If it is not adjusted correctly, you will have a delayed reaction . This lever will have nothing to do with the amount of force your brakes are applied . I suspect your problem may be whith the other adjustment lever on the top of the controller . This is not the large thumb lever on the top front of the box. this lever is small and is a Gain lever. It will either increase or decrease the amount of break preasure applied to your breakes on your trailer.
