  • Compatible with low-volt, PWM, ABS, cruise control, and electric-over-hydraulic trailer brakes
• Dimensions: 4" long x 3-1/8" wide x 1" tall
• Limited lifetime warranty

Gain Adjustment

Gain control lets you set the maximum amount of power that will be applied to your trailer's brakes, adjusting in increments of 0.5. How much braking output you need is determined by the weight of your trailer; a heavier trailer will need more power to bring it to a stop. You want to go as high as you can without the trailer brakes locking up. Typically, the gain is only readjusted when you experience changing road conditions or if the weight of your trailer changes. To get more power to your brakes, press the upper orange rocker switch. To decrease the gain, press the lower switch. When you make your adjustment, the gain setting will show on the LED screen for 10 seconds as a series of bars and then go into sleep mode.

Load Control

Once you have the gain set, you can fine-tune your braking by adjusting the load control on a scale of 1 to 9. This controls the aggressiveness of your trailer's braking, meaning how quickly the brakes reach the maximum braking level. Load control can get the braking power to your trailer faster and with more intensity so that it doesn't push your tow vehicle forward. If your vehicle takes too long to come to a stop, increase the setting by pressing the upper black rocker switch. If it stops too abruptly, decrease the setting by pressing the lower switch. You can alter the setting to suit your driving preferences or to improve handling based on changing road conditions or varied trailer loads.

Pinch-Trigger Manual Override

The Discovery comes with a easy-to-reach, pinch-trigger manual override, great for stopping sway or controlling your trailer's momentum in emergencies. To engage the manual override, just push in the trigger. This will activate the trailer's brakes and brake lights without you having to apply the brakes on your tow vehicle, perfect for limiting trailer movement while you're cruising.

LED Display

The LED display on the Discovery is large and easy to read at a glance. It will show you what setting the brake controller is on as well as give you information for troubleshooting. You can adjust the screen brightness or trigger night mode so it won't glare obnoxiously on your dash. Press the control button to cycle through the different modes.

Quick Installation

Because inertia plays no role in the functioning of this controller, you do not have to mount the unit at any particular angle. Your mounting options are limitless, so long as you can still easily access the controller and the manual override. The included bracket is designed to mount the brake controller flush to the dash so it takes up almost no space at all.

If your vehicle already has a plug-in brake controller wiring harness, just connect the unit to it. Otherwise, you will need to purchase a vehicle-specific wiring harness (sold separately) to plug into. If a harness is unavailable for your vehicle, hardwiring will be necessary.

Note: If a custom brake control wiring adapter is not available for your vehicle, one of the following will be required:

20-Amp circuit breaker (9506P - sold separately) for 2- to 4-brake applications

30-Amp circuit breaker (38630 - sold separately) for 6- to 8-brake applications

See also etrailer.com's exclusive 7- and 4-way brake control installation kit (ETBC7 - sold separately) if you don't already have a 7-way plug at the back of your vehicle.

Time-Delayed Braking

The Curt Discovery comes equipped with time-delayed braking. Every time you apply the brakes in your vehicle, a signal is sent - via the brake switch - to the Discovery. The controller then sends power out to your trailer brakes to activate them with an intensity set by you, at a rate determined by you. Both the amount of braking power (gain) and rate of application (load) can be adjusted to suit your preference, the road conditions, the type of trailer, and the weight of your load. To determine which levels are best for your application, test your towing setup and choose what feels right.

Curt Custom Wiring Adapter for Trailer Brake Controllers - Dual Plug In
part number: C51332

Install your Curt electric trailer 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 port beneath your vehicle's dash.

Features:

• Plug-in wiring adapter allows for quick, simple installation of your electric trailer brake controller
• No cutting or splicing required
  • Custom connector end plugs into the built-in port beneath the dash of your vehicle
  • Other end plugs into the back of your electric brake controller
• Compatible with time-delayed and proportional brake controllers from Curt
  • Brake controller must have built-in plug for adapter to connect - will not work on controllers with pigtail wiring harnesses
• 2' Long, 12-gauge wires have protective covering to deter damage
• Limited 1-year warranty

Installation of Curt Brake Controller Adapter

To install your Curt 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.

This adapter plugs into the port on your vehicle's built-in brake control wiring harness. The harness is located underneath the dash, to the left of the steering column, and it is taped to another harness near the emergency brake pedal.

No hardwiring is required to install this adapter. After you plug it into the factory port, you simply plug the other end of the adapter directly into your electric trailer brake controller. Because there are no wires to connect, installation is not permanent. You can unplug and remove your brake controller at any time to transfer it to another vehicle or securely stow it away.

2008 DodgeRam Pickup

Sorry for the late follow-up. I just wanted to let you know that the brake
controller and wiring harness I purchased through eTrailer worked very well
with my 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 with the Cummins 6.7L diesel. Pictures are
attached for your use, as required.

The trailer was an 18-foot enclosed snow machine tailer with a steel
chassis. I can't remember the empty weight, but it's substantial. We towed
empty and full on dry and snow covered roads from Oklahoma to Colorado and
back. Even with th exhaust brake on my truck, I can't imagine towing this
load through the hills and mountains without a brake controller. It's been
done before, but I would say it's an unnecessary risk given the more than
reasonable prices at eTrailer...it was cheap insurance pulling such a heavy
rig with my family on board.

The controller was definitely not your top-of-the-line model, but the
adjustability and controls were more than adequate for somebody who tows
occasionally. A professional may desire more proportional controls and
adjustability, but not much more. This unit peformed flawlessly.

Thank you for your time. Please feel free to contct me if you would like
any clarification on my statements or pictures.121175

DodgeRam Pickup

In hind sight I probably didn't need to order this item. Forgetting how difficult it was to access the connector on my Dodge Ram when I installed my first (now defunct) brake controller, I imagine it will be a greater struggle to get it to disconnect before putting the new one on. So I think what I'll do is cut the Dodge specific connector off the one end, cut the wires off my old controller and splice this pigtail into it, thus eliminating the need to remove the old connector!436199

The directions on this item are horrible. I finally figured it out and was able to install it onto my Ram 1500, but only after spending hours trying to make everything fit right.

This will work for my short trips with my half-ton pickup, but I would not want to pull anything more than 50 miles with this setup.1427858

DodgeRam Pickup

My 07' Dodge Ram Quad Cab had a factory installed receiver hitch and therefore the plug to which this cable attached. However, I had to go to the Curt mfg website to find a picture of the actual truck plug. Once I found the plug which was buried up in a difficult spot to reach, the cable snapped in easily. It is sufficiently long enough to reach the controller cable if one installs the controller anywhere on the knee panel below the steering wheel.

• Troubleshooting Trailer Brake Controller that Only Functions When Engine Isnt Running
  
• That is an interesting problem you are having, but the problem lies somewhere in the wiring of the brake controller/7-way. The only way a brake controller is going to work properly with the key in the ACC position but not when the vehicle is running has to be due to wiring. Check to make sure there are no shorts between the two wires you ran to the rear of the 7-way. It sounds like you ran a wire for the 12 volt accessory circuit and an additional wire for the brake output. You might

• Troubleshooting "Short" Error Code On Curt Discovery NEXT Trailer Brake Controller C84VV
  
• Hello Surg. It is definitely odd that you are seeing the "short" error code on the Curt Discovery NEXT Trailer Brake Controller # C84VV, especially since your Tacoma was pre-wired from the factory. Nonetheless, this error code is definitely not normal, and is an indication that something is wrong. The display should show the current gain setting when the manual override is applied. With no trailer connected, the "short" code means that the red wire is connected to ground side of the stoplight

• Brake Controller Install Harness Recommendation for Curt Brake Controller in 2009 Chevy Silverado
  
• To install the Curt brake controller part # C84VV in your 2009 Chevy Silverado requires the install harness part # C51515 but this is a harness with 4 blunt cut wires that you'd need to wire to the blunt wires under the dash of your truck since a plug and play harness isn't available. It's a pretty simple process though. You'd just need blue butt end connectors like the # DW05744-5 and you'd be set.

• Troubleshooting Brake Controller Install Where Brakes Lock Up As Soon as Brake Pedal is Touched
  
• Since your controller is not showing a connection and your brakes are locking up anytime the brake pedal is touched that means that instead of having the brake output circuit connected to the trailer brakes (blue wire of controller) you have a stop/turn signal circuit connected to the circuit instead. You can test this pretty easily by turning on either blinker and you should feel the trailer brakes lock up with the blinker getting activated. Since your brake controller would have been

• I may have a solution for you, but there is not a plug and play harness to install a brake controller like the Curt Discovery # C84VV in a 2016 GMC Canyon. However you can use the # C51515 to provide you with a pigtail harness to hard wire the controller into the new truck. This would be the best and only available solution for you to install this in your new Canyon. You'd just need some heat shrink butt connectors like the # DW05745-5 to make the connections and you're all set.

The pin for the red wire coming from the brake controller should mate with the pin for the light green wire on your factory plug.

One of these distances should allow your receiver tube to clear the bottom of the back bumper, but you'll want to measure the distance from the underside of the frame member to the lowest point of the rear bumper. For wiring, you'd begin with a 4 pole, provided by # 118315.

• Why Is Stoplight Circuit Difficult to Find on 2017 Ram 1500 For Installing Brake Controller

• Curt Spectrum Brake Controller Showing no Trailer on 2000 Dodge Ram 2500 After Replacing Connectors
  
• Yes, you are definitely on the right track. If your Curt Spectrum Trailer Brake Controller # C51170 is still not showing a trailer is connected and you have already replaced the connectors, I think it has to be a short either on the brake wiring or the brake magnets themselves. Before replacing your brake assemblies entirely, start by just checking the wires to the brake magnets (if you have not done so yet) and look for wires that may be pinched or otherwise damaged and fix as necessary.

• Curt Brake Controller Recommendation for 2005 Dodge Ram 2500
  
• The price for the Venturer controller part # C74VV and install harness part # C51332 is tough to beat but a proportional brake controller will be a much better option. Proportional controllers sense how hard you are applying the brakes and apply the trailer brakes the same way. Time-delayed like the Venturer put out a preset amount of braking power so they aren't as effective. So instead the Triflex part # C24VV with the install harness # C51332 would be the better option for your 2005
