Streamline the installation of your trailer brake controller with this custom adapter. Simply connect the wires of the harness to your brake controller and then plug the other end into the junction box beneath your vehicle's dash.
Features:
To install your electric brake controller, you need to connect the wiring of the controller to your vehicle. Certain auto manufacturers offer pre-wired options, typically known as tow packages, wherein wiring is run for you from the dash to the trailer connector on the back of your vehicle. When this is done, a port is installed at your dash so that you can easily plug in a brake controller.
This adapter plugs into the port that is built into the electric junction box beneath your vehicle's dash. The black box is located to the left of the steering column, just above the carpet. To plug in the adapter, first remove the cover on the box. The adapter plugs into the second slot from the left, on the top row.
To hook this adapter up to your trailer brake controller, just connect the 4 wires of the harness - ground, power, brake switch, and brake power - to the corresponding wires on the brake controller. If your brake controller came with a plug built into its wiring harness, you will have to cut off the plug and connect to the wires themselves.

Streamline the installation of your trailer brake controller with this custom adapter.

Installation very easy
etrailer and especially Alex's customer support have been stellar. I needed precise information and help with setting up a new tow vehicle. Alex provided details about brake controllers that started from the ground up and got me into a no nonsense controller that is plug and play. I have not had time to install it yet but it's on my to do list this week as well as installing the new mirrors I also purchased a few weeks back. etrailer gets 5 stars plus!
Delivered on time and the right parts
This was very easy to install and wire up. What was not easy was figuring out why I can manually apply my trailer brakes but they do not work when I use the brake pedal. Apparently this is common with early 2000’s GM trucks. The technical people at etrailer were unable to help and I was stuck doing it on my own. Disappointed.
Easy to install and so glad that I have it!!
This item fit my 2005 Escalade perfectl y.
Perfect match, and the instructions were exact. I installed the controller in less than 1/2 hour
The video comparing controllers was very helpful also.
Thank you
Instructions are poor needs a diagram with what wire go's where and instructions that tell you this. As they are now you can only be sure about 2 wires.
Best brake controller money can buy
Excellent product. Fit my suburban perfectly and made of high quality.
This was a great replacement for the factory wiring. The OEM wiring that came with the Tahoe was about three times longer than it needed to be. This replacement was the perfect length. The connector fit perfectly. The wire gauge was heavier duty than the OEM. The only things I didn't use in the kit were the crimp connectors. I chose to solder.
Fast shipping and overall quality is great! Would have loved to have had a wiring diagram shipped with the harness but was able to find that online. If I need any additional towing items I'll be stopping at etrailer.com first!
Exactly as advertised. I used this unit to create a plug-and-play installation for my new TowPro Elite Trailer Brake Controller. Item arrived exactly as advertised, was exact fit for my 2006 Chevy Avalanche.
This trailer brake controller works great. On my chevy silverado truck.
Instructions are poor, need a wire diag ram
