Installation of Tekonsha Brake Controller Adapter
This adapter plugs into the 4-pin connector on your vehicle's built-in brake control wiring harness. The harness is located underneath the dash, to the left of the steering column, taped to another harness near the emergency brake pedal.
To install your electric brake controller you need to connect the wiring of the controller to your vehicle. Certain manufacturers offer pre-wired options, typically known as tow packages, wherein these wires are run for you from the dash to the trailer connector on the back of your vehicle. Often, a brake controller wiring harness is included with your tow package. This harness plugs into a port beneath your dash and connects to the four wires of the brake controller. If, however, you have a brake controller with a plug in place of the four loose wires, you can use the Tekonsha adapter.
This adapter requires no hardwiring. It is designed to plug directly into your electric brake controller for the simplest installation possible. Because there are no wires to connect, installation is not permanent. You can unplug and remove your brake controller at any time and securely stow it away.

2010 Dodge Ram Pickup
Purchased the Tekonsa Primus IQ controller with wiring adapter for my Dodge Ram. Shipment arrived quickly and was exactly what I needed. Installation was a piece of cake. Cut an opening in the plastic stock dash location. Plugged the adapter into the Dodge plug under the dash and into the Primus. Worked perfectly. No fuss. Installed in about 10 minutes which included the time to cut the opening.. Picture will be poster...
I was so happy with the service from etrailers that I ordered the Blue Ox Swaypro hitch. Thanks ETrailer.com!
by: Josh B.03/30/2024
I'm sure the product is great, but it does not work with my truck at all. Everything connects, all fuses are good but it receives no power. I had better luck with a cheap one from Amazon prior to this expensive one.
by: Cheapskate07/16/2020
Bought a Tekonsha P3 Trailer brake controller for my RAM 3500 HD when the OEM unit failed. A bit of work is needed to mount it but was well worth the price and effort to install. Simple to set up and adjust as the new brakes wore in. Braking with my 9750 pounds 5th wheel is now superb. The picture shows the final assembly just before popping the unit into the spot where the original unit was installed. My advice is: forget the factory unit, just buy one of these and enjoy your towing experience.
by: Ken L03/05/2015
Everything arrived on time and as advertised. Installation went without a hitch. The imbedded controller was removed without a problem and the wiring adapter worked as advertised. The EVIC does display an error but is easily corrected by depressing the back button before shifting into gear, Another good experience with etrailer!

Very easy conversion from factory unit. Slightly trimmed the factory dash where the OEM unit was located. New conversion plug was a perfect match. I highly recommend this unit over the expensive factory replacement

Bought this to temporarily install my prodigy controller until I got a factory controller for my ram. This harness was so easy to install (2 minutes) and works so good I think I am going to just keep this setup and save the $200 for controller and $50 to get the EVIC programmed. For $15 you can't go wrong!
by: Mitchell08/31/2021
it works as it should but now i am getting a light on my truck that says service trailer brake system. i hate check engine lights. i didnt know by not using the factory electric brake system it would throw a code but the main thing is that my trailer brakes work. it was very easy to install and so far so good

You will probably have to visit a Ram dealer to have them reconfigure the TIPM system so that you can get rid of the code. Check out the FAQ article that I have attached about using an aftermarket brake controller on a 2010 and up Ram trucks with integrated controllers:

I bought this controller with the adapter harness to fit my 2012 Ram. I installed it in the location the factory controller would go into in about 15 minutes. Plugged right in and worked great. I couldn't be happier with it.

2012 Ram 1500
Great product, plugged right in and made the installation a piece of cake!
The controller I bought was the P2, after a bit of cutting it went right in the hole where I believe the optional factory controller would have been.
I did cut a bit further down than I should have.

Don’t pay for two day shipping. The product and service were great the shipping was not timely.
by: Roger03/08/2022
Your website sold me on whether to purchase from etrailer. Other sites did not show or describe the products to assure me that the product would fit my needs and my vehicle. Even my local trailer supply store was no help and cost was more.

Controller did not seem to be working at first but after some use, it was fine. I had new brakes and drums and I think they just had to self adjust with use use.

Quick shipment worked great saved a lot of time instead of splicing wires under a dashboard just plug in both ends & your done. when you are changing your brake controller from a Ford f 150 to a Dodge Ram its the way to go.

2012 Dodge Ram Pickup
Purchased this product, along with the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 brake controller, to replace an OEM brake controller in my 2012 Ram 3500 which was a timed unit, as contrasted with the P3's proportional braking action. This adapter fit the OEM plug perfectly, and braking function is now, at least in my opinion, greatly improved on all my trailers. Thanks, Tekonsha and eTrailer!
(There was a minor aggravation which had nothing to do with the eTrailer parts; with the OEM unit unplugged and out of the system, the onboard computer turned on a red light on the dash, and an occasional message to "service the trailer brake system". Dealer techs tell me they can't turn it off, and I've gotten used to it. Just a FYI for any one who embarks on the same path as I did - it will either save you time at the dealer, or expose you to more knowledgeable dealer techs than I had....) JM

Hey it's just a wiring connector, but it has to be the right one for your vehicle and device. Mine was and saved a lot of work under the dash for just a little money. Take a close look or photo of your socket and make sure you are ordering the correct configuration. They may change designs from one year to the next. Zoom in on the product description pictures and insure it is a match for your truck.

It works, lasts, and is painless to install. Go for it.

This quality cable is exactly what is required to connect a non factory electronic brake control to a 2015 Ram 1500 factory trailer brake wiring harness. (Note - you can unplug the factory RAM Trailer brake control and the truck will not complain. I had to use specialized brake control for a towed vehicle brake system which is why the Ram factory control had to be disconnected.)
by: John C06/03/2013
Very fast shipping. Brake controller was very easy to install with the factory harness adaptor. Seems to work great, very happy.

Works great still. Just be aware that steep driveways throw off the sensor and sometimes lock up the trailer brakes. Very easy and reliable on the road.
by: Micheal M08/07/2013
Love this! So awesome, all I had to do was plug it in on both ends and PRESTO - trailer brakes. So easy... And since you created the special where the wiring harness and the P-3 Controller was a package, I actually PAID LESS than what your competitors were charging for just the P-3controller. Great job!
by: Ed04/11/2014
I bought the brake controller from them for an earlier truck. I recently bought a newer truck and ask which connector I needed to re-use my brake controller(which by the way works fantastic). I got a very quick response for the correct connector. Took a whole 2 mins to re-install the controller and wire and works great. Thanks again for your great service. Would highly recommend eTrailer and the Tekonsha brake controller.
by: Kerry09/12/2017
Well, I have not installed the product as of today, so this review is more on etrailer's service, or the lack thereof. This product took 2 weeks to be delivered, and that was with it being in stock! I notified etrailer of this issue after checking a couple of times on when it would be delivered, and the original shipping listed it as 3-4 days, and basically the checks in the mail sort of thing. Now this wasn't the "free" shipping, I actually had to pay for this type of "service". I didn't want to even have to write a review, and that is what I responded to them in an email... but their response to me stating that I thought it was poor service, was... we "value our customers opinion". No apology, no here is 10% of your next order.... nothing! so I told them in that case I would change my mind and go ahead and write the review. So, for the couple of bucks I saved going thru them this time I will just use Amazon and my Prime membership where they at least truly "value" their customers opinions, and reports of poor service. Also, if you are in any kind of a hurry for your product you order, forget it! Might as well just grab it off the shelf at the local store, or better yet, find an online retailer who values their customers time and money and guarantees to get it there on time, and makes up for it if it isn't, regardless of who's fault it is. Just my 2 cents...

- Where is Brake Controller Install Harness in 2010 Ram 1500 with 7-WaySince your 2010 Ram 1500 has a round 7-way connector at the rear of it that means a brake controller like our best selling Prodigy P3 part # 90195 could easily install with the correct harness, part # 3021-P. The harness is located underneath the dash, to the left of the steering column, taped to another harness near the emergency brake pedal. I attached a picture that points out where it will be as well.

- Installing an Aftermarket Trailer Brake Controller on a 2010 Dodge Ram 2500 with Factory ControllerTo install an aftermarket brake controller like the Tekonsha Prodigy, you will have to disconnect the Integrated Trailer Brake Module. Doing so will turn on a warning lamp on the instrument cluster. In order to disconnect the ITBM and not get the warning lamp, your local Dodge dealer will have to reconfigure the TIPM (Totally Integrated Power Module), of the truck. Once the TIPM has been reconfigured, and the ITBM has been unplugged, you can use a vehicle specific brake control harness. To...

For the Dodge truck the brake controller connector was changed after the 2009 model year. We have a technical bulletin on the new Dodge harness, see link. The # 3021-P connector will allow you to move the controller from the old truck to the new 2011 Dodge and back by just unplugging the connector from the back of the Prodigy brake controller.

If so that is something you will have to get from a Ram dealer. Or you will have to cut off the end that plugs into the truck on the 3021-P harness and wire it up to the vehicle side harness by function. The brake controller wiring uses the white wire for ground, black for 12 volt power, red for input from the brake switch, and blue for output to the trailer brakes. Your Ram harness may...

The port will be located under the driver dash, it's a 4-pin plug that will match the adapter. The color of wires on the vehicle harness does not need to match the adapter harness.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Prodigy Brake Controller Power Loss Error MessageIf you have the caution screen that says power loss on it then this means that the power to the controller is being interrupted while braking. This is most likely an issue on the black power wire for the controller and how it attaches to the truck. Make sure it is making a solid connection the vehicle battery through a circuit breaker that is functioning properly. I also attached a video on troubleshooting brake controllers for you to check out as well.

- Pr Brake Controller NC Error on 2008 Dodge RamThe continuity check would tell you if the brake output wire is connected all the way back to the 7-Way trailer connector on your 2008 Dodge Ram.

If that does not work, then you will want to take your vehicle to the Dodge dealer so they can re-flash the computer to get rid of the fault code and keep it from returning. Let me know if that works or if you need any more help.

view full answer... - Which Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers Fits a 2014 Dodge Ram 1500For your 2014 Ram 1500 you will need # 3023-P. The Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3021-P is for Ram Trucks from 2010-2012 with the factory tow package. For the 2013-2014 Ram the location of the stoplight circuit was moved out of the main brake controller port. This is why the cables are very similar however the # 3023-P has an extra connector on it. Part # 3021-P may physically plug in but the brake controller will not function properly.

Harness # 3021-P that you referenced fits 2010 to 2012 Rams. In 2013, Dodge created a multiplex electrical system they call the PowerNet. That continued into the 2014 model year. Because of the change, a new harness was needed, # 3023-P. It will still fit the same Tekonsha brake controllers too.
view full answer... - Tekonsha Brake Controller Wiring Harness for a 2014 Ram 1500Your Dad's 1500 must be a 2012 and the harness must be # 3021-P. Dodge changed the electrical system on the Ram trucks starting in the 2013 model year to what they call the Powernet. It is a multiplex type of system and all that means for you is that you need a different wiring harness. Wiring harness # 3023-P is correct for your 2014 Ram. I have linked a video showing how it installs.
