Adapter for Curt Venture Brake Controller on VW Touareg
Question:
I purchased a Curt Venture brake controller. My 2005 VW Touareg has a 4 wire connection under the dash for a brake control but it is a male connect and the unit is also male. Is there an adapter?-Hopefully male to male.

In order to use the Universal Wiring Adapter for Curt Trailer Brake Controllers # C51515 with your Curt Venturer # C74VV brake controller, you will need additional parts from your Volkswagen dealer.
Please see the attached help article on installing a brake controller in 2005 and up Volkswagen Touareg's. It states in part: "To install a brake control on a 2005-current Volkswagen Touareg or Porsche Cayenne using the factory brake control connector, you will need to assemble a brake control harness from parts that you can obtain from a Volkswagen dealer. This harness will allow you to plug your brake controller into the factory brake control connector."
