Default Electric trailer brakes...problems

Having some issues with my trailer brakes. After 6 years of service they seemed to be getting weak and after looking at them they were getting a little thin so I opted for a new set of brakes..complete set up..backing plates magnets and all. After adjusting them manually they do not seem any better than before..in fact they are actully worse!!. With the controller on 10 the brakes will NOT lock up. I can hear the magnet actuating and after a ride around the block there is heat in the brakes just not enough stopping power, at least not like they were when new. Need to address them before going on a trip next week. Ideas, tips suggestions??. Thanks

Albert
