Wiring Needed to Use a Prodigy P3 on a 2013 Kia Sorento
Question:
I have already put a hitch and lighting kit on my 2013 Kia Sorento. Can I now buy a Prodigy P3 brake controller do I need additional equipment for installation? Thank You

It depends on what kind of lighting you have on your 2013 Kia Sorento. If you just have a 4-Way connector, like what comes on the Curt T-Connector # C56332, then you do need some additional wiring as the T-Connector only operates the basic lighting functions on your trailer.
To use the Prodigy P3 # 90195 with your Sorento you need to have a fully functioning 7-Way. If you don't already have a fully functioning 7-Way you need to install the Universal Wiring Kit # ETBC7. This comes with all of the wiring and connectors needed to use your P3.
I am attaching an installation video of the ETBC7 kit on a 2016 Sorento that you can follow as well as some helpful articles. The install video shows us installing the (discontinued) Hopkins InSIGHT Flex-Mount HM47297 on the Sorento but the P3 will install in a very similar fashion as far as wire functions go.
