Installation of Tekonsha Brake Controller Adapter

Brake-Control Adapter Port

This adapter plugs into the connector beneath your vehicle's dashboard. To reach the connector, remove the storage pocket that is built into the center of your dash, just above the ashtray. Once you have removed the pocket, you will see the gray, 4-pin connector that mates with the adaptor.


To install your electric brake controller you need to connect the wiring of the controller to your vehicle. Certain manufacturers offer pre-wired options, typically known as tow packages, wherein these wires are run for you from the dash to the trailer connector on the back of your vehicle. Often, a brake controller wiring harness is included with your tow package. This harness plugs into a port beneath your dash and connects to the four wires of the brake controller. If, however, you have a brake controller with a plug in place of the four loose wires, you can use the Tekonsha adapter.


This adapter requires no hardwiring. It is designed to plug directly into your electric brake controller for the simplest installation possible. Because there are no wires to connect, installation is not permanent. You can unplug and remove your brake controller at any time and securely stow it away.

Plug-in adapter was an exact match for the Ford wiring harness. Connecting to the new brake controller literally took seconds.

2005 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Arrived on time. Install into 2005 f250 was simple using the plug in wiring harness I order with the Prodigy 3. I removed the in dash storage pocket and cut a hole in the back of the pocket to run the wiring harness, reinstalled pocket, installed bracket, plugged up controller. Looks great (see pic)
I have not pulled trailer yet but expect great performance. Thanks etrailer

I ordered the Tekonsha P3, and the Ford wiring harness to replace a failed factory trailer brake controller. Installation was less than 10 minutes. ETrailer is so on it, I received a call the day I ordered saying I had missed the shipping cut off for the day, I had paid for 2nd day, and she wanted to make sure I was ok with still going that route. Crazy good on the customer service. Thank you very much. Everything was as advertised. Video service on your website was a huge help as well.



by:

Installed these on a 41' Landmark Key Largo and, holy cow, I can stop it now! Wish I'd had these in the mountains!. Product arrived intact but boxes were nearly destroyed. Need heavier packaging for the weight. But everything was present with no damage.

Installation was straight forward with no issues encountered. Take some time to plan your brake line installation to avoid future problems. I installed some square tubing across the frame to mount things to because there wasn't anything there. Nothing beneath the chloroplast in that area that would need servicing so it should work out well.

These were well worth the time and money. Just pull out in front of me now! (No please don't.)

Perfect unit; saved a boatload of work.

The brake wiring has been in place for a year + and is working well. etrailer is always my first choice on anything related to my vehicles and trailers.

eTrailer provides superior advice as well as excellent pricing and delivery. Based on eTrailer's recommendation, we installed the Tekonsha P-3 Proportional Brake Controller (PN 90195) along with the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers - Ford (PN 3065-P) on our 2005 F250 Super Duty to replace the OEM controller due to the OEM controller sending insufficient voltage to our 40ft., 26000lb., GVW FB trailer brakes. It took less than 20 minutes to install and works perfectly. It easily adjusts to advance or slow trailer braking and the inertial sensor on this unit works flawlessly. We are extremely happy with these products. Now if only we could permanently disable the TBC error warning light on the dashboard.

Bill,Thank you for your review. I see that you have a 2005 Ford F-250 super duty. If your Ford came with a factory brake controller that you replaced with an aftermarket controller, then the TBC error code will display on your dash. Your local ford dealer should be able to deactivate the TBC error code.

Fast shipment and works great. Really makes a difference with the trailer slowing down and breaking on the mountain roads in Colorado.

Ford F-350 Super Duty

I can not say enough about how great E trailer and James were to deal with. I had 2 brake controllers fail exactly 1 month after they were installed and this company stood behind their warranty and replaced them both. After the second failure I brought my F350 to my mechanic. He spoke to the tech experts at E trailer and discovered the problem may have been excessive ripple/noise in the output of my alternator. We replaced the alter and E trailer sent a third controller to my mechanic. It has worked flawlessly since that repair. These folks are the best at customer service, I can't express my appreciation enough. I will only use and recommend them in the future.

2007 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty

My break controller was shipped fast and was easy to install (less than 5 minutes).
I haven't used it yet but will try it out in the next few weeks.

Great product &amp worked better that the Factory builtin.



by:

we Purchased an additional tow vehicle for our 5th wheel so we purchased another P3 brake controller from etrailer. Very simple product to install to your factory controller if it has one already. If not it takes a touch more effort to find the wires under the dash, but we love this controller and the ease of use and features it has



by:

Received the Tekonsha P3 brake controller and wiring adaptor the other day. Installation couldn't be easier, a ten minute job thanks to the pictures on etrailer showing where to find the tow package plug on my truck. Great little unit with tons of features.. Shipping was extremely quick!



by:
2010 Ford F-250 Super Duty

Plug and play installation made this incredibly simple. I went to 3 autoparts stores prior to ordering from etrailer, and nobody had anything that would fit the factory connection on my 2005 F250 superduty. Went online and found exactly what I needed. Shipping was quick, and had it installed about 10 mins after opening the package. Etrailer's videos are great.



by:

Excellent customer service -quick turn around on order! The Brake controller and wiring harness were a great fit and easy to install... glad to finally be rid of the typical "TBC Fault" issues that plague the factory equipment! Thanks again E-Trailer!

Well designed, great length, simply plug and play. Once I had access to the brake controller plug in my 2006 f250, this adapter plugged right into it. I plugged the other end into my new brake controller and it was running.

Works a described. Plugged right in to our motor home then into the brake controller box.

Always helpful people and great support!

This brake controller works and looks great. I comes with presets or you can fine tune the control.

I really appreciate Etrailer acting so fast in getting my package to me after the Post Office lost the last package. Etrailer is doing a great job with there costumer service.



by:

Quick delivery got my trailer brake module 5535 draw-tite I command and harness took me about 15 minutes to install will be using it in a few weeks don't see any reason why I won't be satisfied with it



by:

This is a snap I cant believe it only took me less than 5 minutes to install. The website has the location of the harness on the truck so easy. I also was going camping and needed a rush order E Trailer exceeded my expectations

  • Replacing OEM Brake Controller On 2006 Ford F-350 With Tekonsha Prodigy P3
    From my research the U1900 error code you are getting is either a short in the wiring or a problem with the brake controller itself. I was unable to find the TBC display you described. The references I found were for Trailer Brake Controller. Since it sounds like you have checked the wiring and finding that you are not getting sufficient current and the brakes are not working at all, you may want to check with the Ford dealership as you said and see if they can isolate the problem.

  • Recommended Tekonsha Brake Controller Adapter for a 2007 Ford F-350
    Yes, to both! There is a plug and play wiring harness for your 2007 Ford F-350 that will work with a Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller TK90160. It is the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter item # 3065-P. For an extra dash mount you'll need the Replacement Mounting Kit Bracket for Primus item # 5280.

  • How to Install a Brake Controller on a 2006 Ford F-350
    If your 2006 Ford F-350 already has the factory tow package, then there is a plug right behind the storage compartment that is under the radio which has a port that will accept one end of the Wiring Adapter # 3065-P.

  • Can Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 be Used to Replace Factory Brake Controller in 2005 Ford F-250
    Yes, you can replace the factory installed brake controller in your 2005 Ford F-250 SD with the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller, # 90195, and Plug-In Wiring Adapter, # 3065-P. You will just need to unplug the factory controller and use the new wiring adapter to plug in the P3. This will set a fault code on the instrument cluster. In order to have this removed you will need to make a trip to your local Ford dealer to have the PCM (Powertrain Control Module) turned off. Once...

  • OEM Electric Brake Controller Not Working when Brake Pedal is Pressed on a 2006 Ford F250
    From your testing and description of the problem it sounds as if your OEM brake controller is not functioning properly. Many of the 2005 and 2006 Ford OEM brake controllers had internal issues that cause owners to replace them with an aftermarket brake controller. The best way to test this is to sever the output wire that exits the OEM controller and test it for power when the brake pedal is pressed. If no voltage increase is detected on the output wire when the brake pedal is pressed,...

  • EOH-Compatible Trailer Brake Controller to Replace Factory Unit in 2005 Ford F-350
    Trailer brake controllers must be designed expressly to be compatible with electric-over-hydraulic trailer brake actuators like the Dexter DX Series EOH drum brake actuator # K71-650. This means that on their main menu screen there must be a setting option for EOH actuators. If not then the controller will not operate properly with the EOH actuator which presents a very different electrical load to the controller than standard electric trailer brakes. Your 2005 Ford unit most likely does...

  • Wiring Harness for Installing Reese Brakeman IV Brake Controller on 2006 Ford F-350
    The Reese Brakeman IV is rebranded # 5504 Draw-Tite Activator IV. To install the controller in your 2006 Ford F-350, you'll need the # 3065-P harness which would plug into the pigtail coming off the controller. The other end would plug into the factory connector located behind the cubby located below the HVAC controls and the radio as shown in the linked video at the 3:50 mark. The video shows a different controller being installed, but the procedure would be the same with your Brakeman IV.

  • Prodigy P3 Brake Controller Not Working on a 2007 Ford F-250 with Factory Integrated Controller
    You will need to have the TBC turned off by a Ford technician at a Ford dealer. Using the IDS, the Ford Technician should access the Programmable Parameters and then select the Personality/Dynamics. Select the TBC and turn it off. The fault code will now be removed and you can then install an after market controller. Also, make sure you are plugging the # 3065-P harness into the correct location. There are a couple of connectors that look the same.

  • P3 Brake Controller Shows Output Short on 2005 Ford F-350 Towing 5th Wheel Trailer
    I would agree it does sound like a short on the truck. The most likely culprit is a dirty or corroded trailer connector. You will want to make sure that the truck side and trailer side connectors are clean and free of corrosion inside and out. It sounds like you are using harness # 3065-P on your 2005 Ford F-350 so I doubt that it is the harness or where it plugs into the vehicle but you may want to check that connection just to make sure there is do dirt or dust in there causing this issue.
