Interestingly the Alko manual suggests that if the brakes are coming on

BRAKES APPLY DURING

Overrun damper is defective. Replace the overrun damper.

That makes no sense at all.

When under way, the ONLY time my Cobra's brakes apply is during
deceleration or downhill travel and if they didn't, THAT would be a defect.

That's why the whole expensive and tricky sliding tow hitch is fitted.
