First, welcome to the forum.
My integrated brake controller did lock up brakes on Jayco trailers I was delivering years ago. If I braked hard, 1 of the 4 would lock up, not all 4. Then I'd set the controller lower so I wouldn't repeatedly lock that tire and damage it.
I haven't had a brake lock up on my trailer yet, although I feel they are braking heavily; especially when applied manually. I don't have a clue as to why the difference between then and now. It is unlikely it is my truck.
Actually, until now, I never heard that trailer brakes should lock up. I've always preferred that brakes NOT lock up.
