Best Brake Controller for a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
Question:
The best brake controller on the market is arguably the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195 because it has safeguards to protect both the vehicle and trailer in the event of a wiring short, storable settings if you need to tow multiple trailers, and it is just super dependable. It also comes with a lifetime warranty so it will most likely be the last brake controller you ever have to buy. In order to install the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 on your 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 you can use the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers part # 3016 for a plug and play install. I have attached a video that shows where the plug is located.
