Has anyone replaced the electric reverse solenoid valve? I have an 07 EZ loader that will intermittently not work in reverse. Iām thinking this little valve is going out but appears to be impossible to replace as far as removing and replacing. Any thoughts?

On an 07 you might consider just replacing the complete inner slide. That us what I did but the problem was not limited to the solenoid. It is not hard to do but you have to bleed the actuator and then the brake lines. Also not difficult if you have a bleeder or a buddy. If you can replace the solenoid without putting the inner slide on a bench you won't have to do any bleeding. You should be able to find the parts online I saw EZ Loader parts when looking for mine. Try Eastern Marine or Pacific Trailers. Pacific Trailers customer service sucks but I have not at any problem with parts that I ordered from them. ETrailer has good customer service and you can talk to a tech but they are normally higher in price and from my experience may or may not have what you need.

I ended up finding a you tube video and it was pretty simple to take everything out. So I hooked the solenoid up to 12 volts and I could hear it clicking so Iām thinking it is good.

Have you tested your wiring and connections at the truck and trailer? On my Tundra I can set the brake, turn the key on, and shift to reverse. This will power my back up lights.
