- Curt Spectrum Trailer Brake Controller # C51170
- Curt Assure Trailer Brake Controller with Adjustable Screen # C49UR

The Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR is an excellent choice to tow any trailer that has between 1 to 3 axles (6 brake assemblies). The main feature is the control knob that mounts in dash or other easily accessible area, it allows for fast and easy adjustment of braking power with a turn of the dial.
I checked with the manufacturer to see if this unit will work with an RV with air brakes. The best answer that we received was, the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake... view full answer...
Yes, the Trailer Brake Control Harness part # 3016 4-pin connector is a direct plug-and-play fit for your 2017 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD and compatible with all Tekonsha brake controllers. The pigtail harness is located underneath your drivers side kick panel.
The next step in choosing a brake controller is to decide between a proportional and time-delayed brake controller. A timed delay controller functions with a slight delay between the time that you initially apply the brakes in... view full answer...
The standard 4-way flat connection on a tow vehicle is designed to operate the trailer lights only. If you are going to be using a trailer with electric brakes then a 7-way connector and a brake controller is needed to operate your trailer brakes.
On a 2014 Buick Enclave with a 4-way flat trailer connection already installed, I recommend both the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Brake Controller, # 90885, and the Etrailer Universal Install Kit for Trailer Brake Controller, # ETBC7.
The # ETBC7 kit... view full answer...
I spoke with my contact at Curt about the issues you and other customers have experienced with their Curt Discovery Brake Controllers # C84VV and newer model Ram trucks.
The problem stems from a low voltage output on the stoplight wire on the truck. The Discovery requires 12 volts from the stop light wire in order to recognize the signal and activate the trailer brakes. Curt has found that the newer Ram trucks often have less than 12 volts at the stop light wire when the brake pedal is... view full answer...
The trailer brake controller in the cab of the motorhome won't interfere with the Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System part # RM-8700. They are two completely separate systems which do not interact with one another. The trailer brake controller controls electric brakes and the supplemental braking system controls hydraulic brakes. view full answer...
The Hayes Air Actuated Trailer Brake Controller part # HA100400C is a proportional brake controller meaning that the brakes from the tow vehicle will be applied to the trailer in the same intensity as you depress the pedal but it is designed for vehicles with air brakes. Since you said that you have hydraulic brakes then I recommend using an electric brake controller like the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90885.
The Tekonsha Prodigy P2 is also a proportional brake... view full answer...
I do have trailer brake controller options for a 2020 Ford Transit T350 but there are no trailer brake controller wiring provisions. Therefore, you must hardwire the controller which involves running wires from the battery to the cab and then from the cab to the trailer connector. We offer kits for this exact purpose like the Curt Universal Wiring Kit for Trailer Brake Controllers part # C51500. This will then allow you to install any standard trailer brake controller like the Redarc Tow-Pro... view full answer...
You will have no problem to adding a brake controller for trailers and still tow a vehicle with the Demco system.
The Demco # SM99251 unit uses inertia and brake light signals to cause braking to your (Jeep) towed vehicle.
Whereas the braking for a trailer uses an in-cab brake controller to send signal through the 12 volt brake power line to create braking in the towed trailer with electric brakes.
If you email me the specs for your trailer I can recommend a brake controller for your... view full answer...
The best trailer brake controller option at the best price for the 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500 is the Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller part # TK90160. The Primus is a proportional controller so it will brake in proportion with your vehicle's brakes. This provides a smoother braking experience compared to a time delayed controller that activates the trailer brakes seconds after the vehicle's brakes which can cause chucking. The Primus also has automatic leveling so it's internal... view full answer...
That's an excellent question!
The Curt # C51180 Echo wireless trailer brake controller will work with your aftermarket brake controller installed.
The Echo gets all its inputs from the 7-way trailer connector, bot the brake lamp circuit and the 12V power for the trailer brakes, so once you plug it in it'll completely bypass any existing aftermarket brake controller. The existing brake controller won't even 'know' there's a trailer connected.
As long as the 12V feed to the 7-way connector's... view full answer...
The Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller - Wireless part # C51180 is the brake controller so you do not need a brake controller to use the Curt Echo. I can see why someone would think that though considering the Echo is so simplistic it seems too good to be true that it could replace your old brake controller. As long as you have an active 12V circuit on the vehicle's 7-way and a smart device Apple: 8.0 or newer or Android: 4.4 and newer the Curt Echo will work. Its built in inertia... view full answer...
For a brake controller that will work well with your 2018 Volkswagen Atlas, I recommend taking a look at the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195. The Tekonsha P3 is one of our best selling brake controllers due to its built in safeguards and ease of use.
Unfortunately, a plug and play brake controller wiring harness is not available for your Atlas at this time therefore, the only way to install the controller would be to hardwire it directly to your vehicle's wiring... view full answer...

We recommend having the dealer re-flash the computer once you install an aftermarket trailer brake controller like the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195 on a vehicle with factory trailer brake controller. That said, it should still work there will just be an error present but we have not tested this.
I do know the Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180 will work with a factory brake controller and it won't create an error message either. view full answer...
The process to install a brake controller on a 2016 Thor Motor Coach Vegas Motorhome will be the same as the process to install a brake controller on a 2017 Thor Motor Coach Vegas Motorhome assuming they both have the same trailer connector installed from the factory.
For a brake controller, I recommend using either the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90885 or the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195. The P2 and P3 are our two top selling brake... view full answer...
The Curt Echo Under-Dash Trailer Brake Controller part # C27JR is an excellent option for a 2018 Jeep Cherokee and can be installed on models with the factory tow package using the Curt Custom Wiring Adapter for Trailer Brake Controllers part # C51459 which allows for a plug and play install.
I have attached a review video I did below on this brake controller. view full answer...
If you are referring to an OEM electronically-operated trailer anti-sway system then you CAN use this along with any trailer brake controller since it uses parallel circuitry that won't interfere with normal braking or signals from a brake controller like the Prodigy P3 # 90195.
The Hayes system works with electric or electric-over-hydraulic brakes on trailers with up to 4 axles.
This unit is not compatible with General Motors vehicles with integrated brake controllers.

The Pilot # 80550 and Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller Proportional # 90885 brake controllers use the same wiring harness so all you will have to do is unplug the old controller and plug in the new one, go through the set up process, and you'll be good to go! view full answer...
