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 built-in port beneath your '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.
For most applications, the factory plug is located beneath the dash, near the center console, but you will have to check the instructions to find the exact location for your vehicle.
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. Simply connect the wires of the harness to your brake controller and then plug the other end into the built-in port beneath your vehicle's dash.Perfect fit, probably didn't hurt that the aftermarket brake controller was also manufactured by Tekonsha, so all of the wire guages and colors matched up easily.
Very satisfied with the Dexter 58-8 brake controller - easy to adjust, and works great on my Navigator. The wiring adapter plugged right in and everything works as it should. The hardest part of installation, was making a heaver bracket to hold the unit. I made custom strap out of aluminum which holds the unit up out of the way, but still within easy reach. I've used the unit a couple of times pulling a car trailer in the past year and it works great.
Towed a dual axle trailer today, everything works well. Couldn't be more pleased.
Clear instructions, everything ready to go out of the box, minimal tools and no experience required. I am mechanically inclined but not one bit knowledgeable about cars and this whole deal was a breeze.
Excellent product. Just as described. Great service with easy to follow instructions. A very good company to do business with!
Made the wiring of the controller into my F150 a snap. Literally. Just snap it into the existing truck harness and done.
Made installation easy on my F250. Don't know why, but I did not take pics of the harness spliced into the other harness, and hooked up.
This plug-in made it quick, simple, and straight-forward to wire-in the brake controller to my computer-intensive fifth-generation Ford Explorer. I would recommend.
This harness worked perfectly to connect the brake controller to my factory wiring.
Exactly what I needed to properly connect the brake controller to my 2019 Ford F53 chassis. eTrailer comes through for me once again.
The adapter fit perfectly and was just as described in the pictures and detailed description.
Very good service. Everything worked as prescribed.
Easy install. Haven't towed with it yet so not sure how it compares to a traditional controller.
Perfect fit
Good fit, Good quality.

These guys and gals are fast with their deliveries!
