This pocket bracket can be used to mount the Prodigy or Prodigy P2 brake controller in another vehicle or to replace a lost or damaged mount.by: Tom V07/01/2015
The extra mounting pocket makes the unit transportable from vehicle to vehicle. I have multiple tow vehicles. It saves the cost of having a controller in each vehicle. Simply unplug and pop out of the pocket and pop in other vehicle. This way your using a controller that your used to and it's functions. Great product

Forgot to remove this from the old truck so needed to order a new one for the new truck. Exactly as expected and great service as usual from Etrailer.
by: Richard 09/06/2023
now that i have this 4 way and 7 way plug i can tow anything. It makes my vehicle more versatile.
by: Ron M06/12/2017
A great way to expand the use of your brake controller if you plan on using it in only one vehicle at a time. Saved a lot of money over purchasing a second unit.
by: David03/25/2014
I purchased this mounting pocket for holding the Tekonsha P2 brake controller in a second tow vehicle, as the controller is easily transferred between vehicles. I have installed the pocket and used the trailer brake controller now in the second vehicle. It works just like the one in the first vehicle!
by: John 09/01/2023
Having an extra pocket mount allows me to move my Prodigy from one tow vehicle to another.
by: Rob05/25/2016
The product is excellent but etrailer is AWSOME. I have been a customer for years-trailer itches, wiring packages etc. the ordering is flawless, shipping and packaging is excellent and the tutorials are well done and helpful.

A year later and all is working well. ETRAILER IS GREAT. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
by: Gerry01/16/2017
Holder worked just as it should. It took a few minutes to decide just where to mount it as I wanted to be sure I would not have to move it. I am particular about my truck. It is a 2006 sierra that I don't ever plan to replace. So I don't want any extra holes. Etrailer is the best. If I ever need anything else trailer related I definitely know where to go. I tell all my friends I also bought a wiring harness for my wife's pathfinder. It worked perfectly. Nissan makes it very difficult to find the plug-in, but that is another story.
by: bowtieollie04/18/2017
Excellent quality and strength. Why skimp on something as important as your hitch? I have purchased three of these Draw Tites - I guess a repeat customer will scream about the true quality a company can garner from repeat customers. When you pull show cars worth six figures, you can't afford a poorly made hitch.
Step up, step out, and don't fret what you are pulling.
by: Dan D.01/02/2017
The items I ordered were delivered promptly and were exactly as ordered. In addition, installation instructions were included and the instructions were more detailed than I was able to find from any other source.
I purchased a new pickup truck that came equipped with a tow package. I tow a two horse trailer with electric brakes. Since the truck manufacturer doesn't know what kind of trailer you have, the vehicle wasn't equipped with an inertia brake controller.
It does have the input plug, however. So I had to get a mounting bracket and attachment cable so I could move my controller from my old vehicle to my new one.
I simply ordered a mounting bracket and cable and these items arrived a few days ago.
I will be installing them soon. So, I'm satisfied with the service from etrailer.
by: Frank D.09/27/2017
Pretty straight forward purchase of an accessory for my Prodigy brake booster. But, as usual, etrailer had just what I needed. These mounting pockets give your installation a nice clean look, and with the wiring harness exiting out the back, it's easy to keep it out of sight and out of the way. I bought this one so that I can easily move my brake booster between either of my two F250's. One suggestion. Check your manual before you order coming make sure that you have a suitable place to mount this product. There are specific limits for angle and tilt beyond which your Prodigy booster will not work.
by: Clyde06/28/2020
Product works great. Installation very easy.
etrailer delivery time was a bit extreme. I ordered from etrailer on the recommendation from a friend. It took 7 weeks to receive my brake cable. Upon further research I could have gotten it in 3 days from another dealer. etrailer never called or emailed to explain delivery situation until I contacted them for an update. Product great. Service not so much.
by: Gene L06/17/2016
As this order is only for replacement parts lost due to totaling my truck I can only review the service and availability of replacement parts. I found etrailer to be a tremendous asset for such items. I expected to have to buy a complete new brake controller but etrailer had the parts I needed to use my original controller. Saved my a bunch of money and the salesperson understood what I needed and helped me with the order. Very nice person.
by: Ronald01/16/2013
There actually is very little to say as the mounting bracket is an OEM product. I needed the mounting bracket because one cold day when the temperature was below zero, I entered my truck and my knee hit the cold bracket and it cracked. It was brittle because of very cold temperatures. It would be much better if the bracket were more tolerant of cold temperatures. With that being said, what is special about etrailer.com is the wide variety of replacement parts. I very much appreciate their vast inventory so the consumer can quickly and with minimal cost, purchase broken or missing parts.
by: Donald08/30/2022
Easy install with the factory wiring for easy installation of the brake controller in the Flex.
by: Nick12/06/2022
installation was easy, I have never used it, but I have it just in case
by: MattC09/22/2019
Worked like a charm! Had to remove some of the lower dash to reach the connection, but a video helped with that. Plugged in the pigtail to my brake controller, and viola - brakes, and lights, for my trailer!
by: Phyllis 06/24/2023
Well packed, delivered on time and exactly as pictured. Thanks!
by: Todd F03/25/2014
Exact fit for my Prodigy 2 controller. It took us longer to decide on a placement than it did to install it. The pocket I received did not come with mounting screws but that was not a big deal as I was planning on using Phillips bolts with washers and locking nuts for the install.
by: William V.08/01/2014
I called to ensure that I was actually ordering the right wiring harness for my truck and was going to order online. The guy I spoke with told me online orders were shipping in 48 hours but if I gave him my order, he'd get it out the same day! Got my order very quickly and customer service was great. I will DEFINITELY order from etrailer.com again. Thanks!
by: Guy08/03/2014
I already owned the Tekonsha Prodigy controller so all I needed is new wiring and a mounting bracket. Each item is original and was delivered as promised. It is great to do business with "etrailer.com."
by: Steve 06/28/2021
good product, does what it is designed to do. It would be nice if the slot design in the front aligned better with the screw / mounting holes on the back side. Easily solved by enlarging the area toward the outside edges to access the wider mounting holes
by: RB05/10/2011
It holds the brake controller fine but the harness does not stay attached to the pocket when I go to use the brake controller in my other truck, so the harness falls to right where the feet are.There should be a clip that locks harness to pocket holder.other than that is works fine.
by: Jim10/08/2018
I really like the slide in option for the P2 controller I bought for my truck. Having this option allowed us to set up my wife's Grand Cherokee for the few times we use it to haul the trailer. Just wish it was designed so the connection was made when sliding the controller in instead of having the pull the cable through which looks sloppy when the controller isn't in the Jeep.

- Removing Existing Brake Controller and Installing Tekonsha Prodigy P2 90885 on 2012 Nissan FrontierGood choice going with a proportional controller like the Prodigy P2, part # 90885. A proportional controller uses a built in accelerometer to determine how fast the tow vehicle is braking. It will then send the appropriate amount of voltage to the trailer brakes so the vehicle and trailer brake at the same rate for safe and predictable braking. Although the Curt Venturer is a good piece of equipment, it uses the older time-delayed technology that will always send the same amount of preset...

view full answer... - Brake Controller that Can Easily be Moved From 2000 to 2006 Chevy SilveradoThe Tekonsha P2, part # 90885 would be ideal for what you are wanting to do. The P2 includes a quick disconnect that would wire to your OEM wiring adapters that came with each truck. To accomplish what you are wanting to do, you would need an extra quick disconnect, part # 7894 and a replacement mounting pocket, part # 7686. Once installed, the mounting pocket and quick disconnect would remain in the vehicle, and the controller can be easily moved to the other truck. Keep in mind that...
view full answer... - Quick-Release Mount Recommendation for a P3 Brake ControllerThe standard quick-release mount for the P3 # 90195 is the part # TK5906. This would probably be your best option. Actually I checked the reviews for the # 7686 and found a customer who said he attempted to get it to fit a P3 and it did not work. Because of that I would not recommend it for you.

The easiest way to install the P3 in your 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee is with the Brake Controller 7 & 4 Way Installation Kit, # ETBC7. It does require a 4-way trailer connector like the Tow Ready T-One Wiring Harness # 118349 at the rear of your vehicle. The T-One wiring harness will plug into the back of the taillights and a separate wire is run to the positive post of the vehicles battery. I am including a video...

For that you'll want the part # 7686 which is designed for easy removal of the controller as needed. To install this controller in the 2005 Toyota Tundra requires just the install harness part # 3040-P. From the 4-way you have in your 2008 Sequoia you would need to convert it to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller.

It is quite common for our customers to choose to replace their OEM brake controller with an aftermarket unit such as the popular Tekonsha Prodigy P2 # 90885.

view full answer... - Parts Needed to Install an Electric Brake Controller on Two Vehicles for Towing a Camper TrailerYes, you can set up both of your vehicles for towing trailers with electric brakes. The only requirement is that you have a 12 volt constant power source for the brake controller you choose, and that you have a brake light signal that has 12 volt power only when the brake pedal is pressed. The Prodigy P2, # 90885 brake controller, would make a great choice for moving from one vehicle to the other, with the addition of a second mounting pocket, # 7686 and a second plug-in harness, # 20127....
view full answer... - Will Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Fit Mounting Pocket for Prodigy P2I've never tested it out and while I believe the P3 # 90195 would technically fit in the Mounting Pocket # 7686, the P3 has a slightly different profile than the P2 so it won't fit nearly as well. I recommend just going with the Mounting Bracket Kit # TK5906 that was designed specifically for the P3 so that you know it will fit properly.
view full answer... - Can The Tekonsha P2 Trailer Brake Controller Be Mouned on Top of Dash Rather Than Down Low? Yes, the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller # 90885 can be mounted on top of the dash on your 2017 Nissan Pathfinder LT, with the factory tow package. This is quite common on several vehicles which actually place the factory connector behind a panel in the dash rather than behind the drivers area of the dash. Running the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3050-P would be rather difficult. Instead you could use either the 34" Pigtail # 7894 or 60" Pigtail # 20160 and then attach...

view full answer... - Availability of Brake Controller Wiring Harness for 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee with Tow PackageJeep did not install a brake controller connector under the dash for the older Grand Cherokees, so the brake controller would need to be hardwired. If your Grand Cherokee has the OEM 7-way on the rear bumper (it will say Mopar on the cover), the output circuit for the 7-way will have been ran already. Look for a light green or possibly blue length of wire coiled under the dash near the emergency brake pedal. If you are planning on using a Tekonsha brake controller of recent manufacture,...

- Brake Controller Wiring Harness for Prodigy Brake Controller Installed on 2016 Toyota TacomaAn 8 year old Prodigy would most likely have the 4 loose wires exiting the rear of the controller, in which case you'd use the # 3031-S wiring harness. The controller would wire to the harness color for color. If your Prodigy has the plug in the rear of it, you'd use the # 3031-P wiring harness. If you needed another mounting bracket, we offer a replacement, part # P7685 or the replacement mounting pocket, part # 7686.

I have this pocket currently installed in three vehicles. Although occasionally the connectorharness falls out when not connected, otherwise things work fine. It is just a little difficult to disconnect, but otherwise fine.
