Install your electric brake controller quickly and easily with this custom wiring adapter. Simply plug one end of the adapter into your brake controller and then plug the other end into the built-in harness beneath your 's dash.
Features:
This adapter plugs into the 4-pin connector on your vehicle's built-in brake control wiring harness. The harness is located near the dash.
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.

Install your electric brake controller quickly and easily with this custom wiring adapter. Simply plug one end of the adapter into your brake controller and then plug the other end into the built-in harness beneath your vehicle's dash.I replaced my old VW Atlas with a newer one (with tow package). So I needed a way to connect my old Takonsha P3. I bought the above harness, but when I went to install it, I realized the in car harness was micro and the one from etrailer was normal sized. So I couldn’t plug in the connector. I ended up having to cut the VW and etrailer cables, connect, and solder them. I mean, I haven’t seen the actual correct fitting cable and this one made life at least a bit easier. Just be aware, that if you have a micro connected VW side, you will still have to cut. I’ve bought many things from etrailer and they are great.
The Tekonsha package says "2018-Current Atlas (all models)". I have a 2023 Atlas Cross Sport & it DOESN'T fit. This was a bummer because I paid for expedited shipping, and now to return it - I'll be losing even more money since I have to pay for the return label. The product itself feels quality, so I cant knock it for that. If you have a 2023 & newer VW Atlas please be aware this won't fit even though Tekonsha says it will.
etrailer always does a great job with shipping, so I did receive the package very quickly.
This was a harness for a 2021 Porsche Cayenne. It is very hard to find support and info for this particular car due to its rarity. I had trouble finding the part, and then trouble locating the place to plug it in. Two different people at etrailer went above and beyond to help me. Can't say enough about that. In the end, it worked fine. Contrary to the written instructions, the connection is under the dead pedal in the footwell, not to the right of the steering column as the instructions say.
Super easy to use! Vehicle chassis connector on my 2015 Cayenne Diesel was up higher than expected - had to look up about a foot above the dead pedal area, also above the OBD2 connector - but it was there and easily accessible. Harness was long enough to allow flexibility in mounting the controller in a good location.
Perfect fit, save time from making my o wn.
Once again, etrailer came through for me. Needed parts to share a brake controller to 2 two vehicles. All came as expected and did the trick. 4-5 different transactions now, and always a good experience. Thanks etrailer!
I'm disipointed that the shipment was not deleivered in a timely maner. I requested expided shipping when ordered but was not informed that it is at your descrestion when it actually ships. If I was informed that shipping was going to be delayed I would have canceled the order. The parts did arrive after we left on our adventure. I had my son overnight to us at a cost of $[XX]. This does not make me a happy camper. Your org has failed me. I think you could do better.
Plug and play with factory trailer harn ess
I needed a trailer harness for a Porsche and etrailer had it in stock. The sales associate was very knowledgeable and friendly. I got the harness in just a few days. Thanks!
Necessary to plug and play with brake c ontroller.
Not much to say other than it’s well made and does the job!
I was not sure if this would work,but it worked great.
I will recommend this to all Touareg owners that get a P3.
I am going to put my Happy Camper hat back on.
Excellent product eliminates the need to track down and cut any existing wires. This is a must have
Shipped quickly and was the exact fit. Thanks
It doesn’t fit my vehicle as advertised.

If your Atlas doesnt have the factory tow package, it might not be equipped with the brake controller connector
This adapter made the installation on the audi q7 a breeze.
Didn't fit. Completely wrong plug for my 2018 atlas. They refunded my money.
Very easy to use to install
Perfect fit into the factory plug on an Audi 2008 Q7
Fit perfectly
