A method and system for braking a trailer with a trailer braking system including receiving, at a controller, a brake request from a vehicle. The controller receives wheel speed signals from wheel speed sensors on the trailer. The controller determines a velocity of the trailer based on the wheel speed signals and determines a wheel speed based on one of the wheel speed signals. The controller compares the velocity of the trailer to the wheel speed to obtain a difference value. The controller determines that one of the wheels is unstable when the difference value exceeds a threshold. When unstable and when the brake request is received, the controller generates a braking signal to reduce the braking force on the one of the plurality of wheels.
