What Brake Controller Pigtail do I Need for my 2015 Toyota Tacoma and my RedArc Brake Controller

Question

Question:

Just bought a Tow-Pro Elite brake controller intended for my 2015 Tacoma. Do I also need a cable to connect to the port in the truck or do I need to hard wire this myself? Thanks.

The Tekonsha Custom Wiring Adapter for Trailer Brake Controllers part # 3040-P and # 331-TPH-017 combo is what you are looking for. This will plug into your factory port and give you the connector needed to plug directly into the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite # RED44FR you purchased.
