Easy-to-Access Brake Controller

Tekonsha POD Controls and Components

The Tekonsha POD is designed to mount in any direction, and it's especially suited for mounting on near-vertical dashes. All the controls are on the front of the module, so you can still access them with the controller tucked away in a convenient place.


Tekonsha POD review

Braking Output

Braking output is the maximum amount of power that will be applied to your trailer's brakes. 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 set the braking output as high as you can without locking up the brakes. Once you've set up the brake controller the first time, you shouldn't need to adjust the settings until the trailer load changes, you switch trailers, or road conditions change. Use the thumbwheel on the side to change the braking output level. The output setting will appear as a number on the digital display, with a higher number indicating higher braking power.


Manual Override

The Tekonsha POD keeps the manual override within easy reach on the front of the module, great for stopping sway or controlling your trailer's momentum in emergencies. Push the slide-bar lever to 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.


Quick, Simple 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, with the controller designed with all of the controls on the front of the module so you can access them even if it's mounted upside down.


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.


Installation Accessories

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.


Note: If a custom brake control wiring adapter is not available for your vehicle, a 20-amp circuit breaker (sold separately) may be required for installation.


Time-Delayed Braking

What is time-delayed braking

The Tekonsha POD 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 POD. 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. The amount of braking power (output) 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.

Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers - Nissan and Infiniti
part number: 3050-P

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 junction box beneath your vehicle's dashboard.

Features:

  • Wiring adapter eases installation of your electric brake controller
  • 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 time-delayed brake controllers: Draw-Tite Activator I (5100), Draw-Tite Activator II (5500), Draw-Tite Activator III (5520) and Tekonsha PowerTrac (39523)
    • Compatible proportional brake controllers: Tekonsha Prodigy (90185), Tekonsha P2 (90885), Tekonsha P3 (90195), Tekonsha Primus IQ (TK90160) and Tekonsha Voyager (39510)
  • Limited 1-year warranty


Installation of Tekonsha Brake Controller Adapter

This adapter plugs into the 6-pin connector on your vehicle's built-in brake control wiring harness. Older models will have the harness located underneath the dash, to the left of the steering column, taped to another harness near the emergency brake pedal. Newer models have the harness under the dash, above the gas pedal.


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.

Great little brake controller for the money if you don't need heavy braking on a larger trailer. Simple and economic.



by: Cain05/10/2024

I am by no means mechanically inclined but the ease of connecting adapter on one end and the other end into the unit was way easy on my 2017 Nissan Titan. Probably no longer than 30 minutes to install.

2008 Nissan Titan

I purchased the 3050-P quick connect wire harness for the ease of installation.
My 2008 Nissan Titan has the big tow package and I needed an electric brake system.
All I had to do was remove two phillips head screws and the lower dash panel pulls off. Locate the factory brake harness which is taped up at the emergency brake and attach the two together. I routed the harness to the right side of the lower dash because I'm right handed but, there is enough wire to move it to other areas within reason.
I also purchased the pod Pro Series 80500 which serves 1 or 2 axel brake systems. I mounted it to my lower dash on the right side within reach and it plugs right into the wire harness.
I have not had chance to use the new system yet but, am confident that etrailer has sold me a system that will work for me.

by: Steven05/09/2024

I have had only one opportunity to test the Tekonsha brake controller, but I was very pleased with its performance. I won't say installation was easy, but got it done in a reasonable amount of time. Watching other how-to videos really helped.



by: jim a06/09/2015

We have a Honda Ridgeline and needed this for our camper trailer. It was nice ordering the specific plug in wire for the Ridgeline and therefore eliminating hard wiring, just plugged it in. It was rough getting to the factory plug under the dash by the emergency brake petal switch. My hands are not small enough, ha ha. But success was had. Plugged into the controller and mounted it and u-wall-a. It works the way it is suppose to, I like that. A good quality unit that does what it is suppose to. thanks.



by: Michael B.03/08/2019

Very happy with this product. It fit nicely in my truck and plugged right into the factory wiring harness. Total installation time was under an hour. Easy to adjust, and works perfectly with my 5th wheel trailer. I simply pulled out the little storage cubby from the dash, cut the back off, slid the controller in, bolted it together, and stuck it all back in the dash. Looks and works great.



by: Rolando Torres07/11/2013

Easy to install in my Toyota-Tacoma 2012. I pull my Travel Trailer and this break controller worked very well and with just a little bit adjustment. Also this item was shipped very fast.



by: Mike06/26/2013

I have a Toyota Tacoma (06). I had the controller installed in less than five minutes. One minute to gather the tools: drill/bits, screw driver, and tape. I thought tape would be helpful to hold the ground screw to the driver given the tight are under the dash. One minute to drill the ground hole. One minute to install the ground screw. One minute to plug in the cables and fish the wire under the stirring wheel to allow for the controller to be mounted in the storage area found on Tacoma trucks dash. I guess I was wrong. It only took four minutes. I did not need to put the tools away I was off to do other projects. I rate the product as good because I have not tried it on the trailer yet.



by: Bill G.06/04/2017

I received my purchase very quickly.
I
just installed the control and wire harness today. Installation was easy, all you need are basic hand tools and a drill with a small bit.
Haven't had chance to test it out yet but, when I do I'll update.



by: Tom05/21/2021

Worked out perfectly for me, super easy installation with adapter harness. Work's flawlessly, easy one hand gain control with control's on front. My truck had nice cubby it fit in so out of the way and seamless look. Thanks for a great product and service.



by: Alex08/07/2019

Excellent quality of materials, fit perfectly fine on our 2018 Infiniti QX-60. Just make sure to take the cap off from the break connector in order to fit the plug and play wire harness. Cap is attached.

Thanks,

Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller And wiring harness purchased to pull 20’ enclosed trailer on my Infiniti QX 80. Installation was easy and correct the first time. Controller works great. Thank you etrailer

2015 Nissan Xterra

It was easy to use this short wiring harness to connect a Tekonsha Prodigy P3 brake controller to the factory installed under-dash connector on our new 2015 Xterra. ALL 2015 Xterras have that under-dash connector, regardless of trim level or model. Previous years may also, just look for the white 6-conductor connector that is taped to a wire bundle under the dash above the right side of the driver footwell (see my photo). The cable was just the right length to make the connection to the brake controller mounted to the plastic panel just up from the hood release tab (see the other photo). Because the brackets supplied with the controller would have placed the controller about an inch from the dash surface, creating a knee-banger situation, I instead use some industrial quality 3M dual-lock fastener (like velcro on steroids) to mount the controller. The controller is securely mounted right up against the dash panel, but is still is removable, if needed.
If you also need a rear 7-way connector harness and the relays that all plug into the factory installed connectors, I highly recommend #118266. It provides everything you will need except for the bracket to mount the 7-way connector to the bottom lip of the rear bumper, see #TM76474.

I sell and install a variety of components for various companies and individuals. I have zero comebacks from this company. Not that I haven't received defective parts but they always make it right. And that is good business.



by: Steven K.06/05/2018

Thanks to etrailer’s video “Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee”, the installation of a Tekonsha PowerTrac controller on my 2003 Jeep was very straight forward (and I’m not a car guy!). Like in the video, I used the wiring kit (#5506). I forgot to order a pigtail wiring harness but was able to pick one up locally. Took the trailer out last weekend and the brakes worked great.



by: Caleb 02/07/2024

The controller was a great option for our 2021 forest river FSX and gave me plenty of control over the brakes. It does require a adjustment time to time but has always worked when brakes are applied. The setup and installation were a breeze and has worked for many trips.

I received the Prodigy 3 brake controller very quick. It was a plug and play. Installation was completed in less than 30 minutes. Etrailer are the best.



by: Larry Mcb.05/22/2022

Have used the power track for a year with city and interstate travel and a 4000# single axle TT. Working flawlessly on my 20 Blazer using a bypass stoplight switch.



by: Joshua B10/26/2019

I am still very much satisfied with my Tekonsha brake system and harness. It has continued to work flawlessly and has prevented an accident on more than one occasion. I’m glad I spent the little bit extra considering the ease of installation and continued reliability!



by: Tim B.05/10/2013

The control works great. Nice incremental application of wheel from nothing to hard on! Led light goes from green to red also in incremental degrees. Installation was a snap in my 2008 F150 with tow package. Just Plug in the control clip and the other end in the terminal above and to the right of the computer check terminal. Rather than have it below my dash I opted for the cove below the lighter. Etrailer did a nice job of getting out to me right away and kept me informed where this was at all the way to my door. Good Job!



by: Patricia02/21/2024

The brake controller we purchased and had professionally installed works perfectly. We had it installed in our RV for use when towing a large vehicle trailer. It's reliable and simple. It was a great purchase!



by: Walter03/04/2022

Janet was very helpful in answering my questions and helping me select the correct trailer brake controler for my 2007 Nissan Frontier. Didn't need to cut and crimp wires, it was all plug and play. I needed it ASAP and got it in two days. It's good to have customer service in the U.S. and not have to struggle with foreign accents. Thanks etrailer!

Product arrived quickly and installed very easily. Plug and play with the correct adapter (3035-P Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers - Ford, Lincoln, Mercury) for a 2001 Ford F-150. Controller is very easy to set the braking on your trailer.



by: Ronald 04/15/2024

Fast delivery and the product was as easy to install as shown in the installation videos on your website.



by: Rick08/25/2018

Installed on 2003 Toyota Tundra with the factory tow package. Installation was a breeze with the included vehicle specific wiring adapter. It took me about 45 minutes total. Looks professionally installed. Easy to use. Set the adjustment for your specific trailer and go!

  • No Green Light on Tekonsha PowerTrac Brake Controller 39523 When Trailer is Connected
  • First, confirm that there are no other items that generate radio frequency interference (RFI) mounted within one foot of the controller; items such as cell phones and CB radios can interfere with its operation and could affect the display. (Also, if you happen to have a breakaway switch on your trailer, take care that you do not ever test it with the trailer connected to the vehicle as this will damage the controller.

  • Brake Controller and Parts Needed to Install on a 2013 Ford Explorer
  • If you have a factory 7-way at the rear of your 2013 Ford Explorer then you would want to use a Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3035-P to simply plug into the back of a brake controller like the Prodigy P2 brake controller # 90885 and then will plug into a port under the dash, near the center console. If you have a 4-way harness already you will need a Brake Controller 7 & 4 Way Installation Kit # ETBC7. This kit comes with everything you will need to convert your 4-way to a 7-way.

  • Brake Controller Installation and Recommendation for 2020 Subaru Outback
  • Even though you won't be using it frequently, I'd still recommend getting a proportional controller. A proportional controller will sense how quickly the tow vehicle is braking, and will send the proper amount of voltage to the trailer brakes so that the vehicle and the trialer brake at the same rate for safe, effective and predictable braking. The fact that you're not planning on using it very often makes me suspect that you might prefer not to have a traditional-type controller mounted

  • In order to bypass your factory installed controller and install an aftermarket brake controller like the Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller, # 90195, with Plug-In Wiring Adapter, # 3016, you will have to make a couple of cuts and connections. First you will cut the blue wire on the plug-in wiring adapter and connect it to enough 12-gauge blue wire to reach the rear of the truck.

  • Draw-Tite Trailer Brake Controller And Parts Needed For A 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon
  • For your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon, and the Tekonsha PowerTrac Electronic Brake Controller # 39523, there is not a plug and play vehicle specific adapter, unfortunately. However, this will still work just fine with your vehicle. If you do not have any trailer wiring already, you're going to need to add a 4-pole with # C56040, and a 7-way # ETBC7. From here, you should be all set to use the Tekonsha PowerTrac Electronic Brake Controller # 39523 with your 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon.

  • Is a Plug and Play Brake Controller Wiring Harness Available for a 2011 Chevrolet Express Van
  • There are no brake controller plug and play options on the 2011 Chevrolet Express Van, but a brake controller installation will be fairly simple if your van has the factory tow package with 7-way trailer connector. If your van has the factory tow package, there will be a bundle of 4 or 5 wires under the dash for a brake controller. They will be wrapped with a white tag that indicates the function of each wire. The wires are cut off, so you will just need a universal brake controller

  • Is a Relay Needed When Installing Tekonsha Prodigy P3 on a 2018 Nissan Titan XD
  • If you don't have the factory 7-Way on your 2018 Nissan Titan XD then you will need the kit # N40975 which comes with a 7-Way/4-Way connector and the needed relays to activate the tow package. Aside from this we haven't heard yet about needing to add a relay. What you might want to do before installing the Prodigy P3 # 90195 and Adapter # 3050-P is check your relays to make sure that they are installed. I tried looking up the locations in the online version of the owner's manual but

  • Where is Brake Controller Install Port on a 2016 Nissan Titan XD
  • I have attached a brake controller installation video on a Nissan Titan for you to check out. It shows exactly where the brake controller harness will be located under the dash. The truck in the video is a 2008 model, but it will be the same for your 2016 model. I have also attached a photo of the under side of the dash that shows where the harness will be located. The harness will be located underneath and left of the steering column, taped to another harness near the emergency brake pedal.

  • Prodigy Brake Controller Installation in 2015 Infiniti QX60
  • Since there can be many connectors under a vehicle dash, I suggest you test the connector you've found to confirm it is indeed for a brake controller. A brake controller port will have four wires/contacts and one of these will carry 12V at all times, and another will carry a signal ONLY when you press the brake pedal. The other two pins should not carry any signal at all. You'll need a tester like # PTW2993 to test the pins. If this is indeed a brake controller connection port then you

Simply plug one end of the adapter into your brake controller and then plug the other end into the junction box beneath your vehicle's dashboard.

  • Why Does 2012 Nissan Pathfinder Have Trailer Brake Controller Port If It Only Has A 4-way Connector?
  • The reason your 2012 Nissan Pathfinder has the trailer brake controller port underneath the dash even though it has a 4-way connector installed is because there is a direct replacement 7-way connector. The Tekonsha T-On Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118266 plugs in directly to the factory connectors on your Pathfinder and will not require you to run any wires. To make your universal harness that plugs into the 7-way connector work you will need to run the blue wire from the connector

  • How Do You Install a Tekonsha Trailer Brake Controller In 2019 Nissan Murano W/ Tow Package?
  • I would be happy to help, but there is not a Plug-In wiring adapter compatible with your 2019 Nissan Murano as the factory did not install a factory trailer brake controller port nor wiring to install a trailer brake controller. Based on all of the information I was able to find on your 2019 Nissan Murano its tow package included a 4-way connector which is actually not compatible with electric trailer brakes. You will need to add a 7-way connector to your vehicle using the # ETBC7. This

  • Brake Controller Install and Recommendation for a 2007 Nissan Frontier
  • We had a customer with a 2007 Nissan Frontier just like yours have trouble finding the port to install the brake controller harness needed to plug in the # 3050-P come back and say he was able to find it above the gas pedal. I attached the picture he sent us that shows where it was. For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup.

  • Recommended Mounting Location for Tekonsha Prodigy P2 in 2022 Nissan Frontier
  • Looking at pictures of the 2022 Nissan Frontier interior, the best mounting location for your P2 # 90885 is probably to the right of the steering wheel under the dash. The only other spot I could see it going is to the left instead. As you said, space is limited. If you want to run it to the passenger side you can use the # 20160 but that would require splicing. Also, you would want to make sure it isn't so far that you can't easily adjust or use the manual override.

  • Brake Controller Install Harness Recommendation for 2016 Nissan NV3500 with 7-Way
  • The brake controller install harness part # 3050-P that you referenced is the correct harness for installing a Tekonsha brake controller in your 2016 Nissan NV 3500 that has a factory 7-way. The harness is located underneath the dash, to the left of the steering column, taped to another harness near the emergency brake pedal. For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works

  • 7-Way and Brake Controller Recommendation for a 2007 Nissan Pathfinder
  • The Prodigy P3 brake controller part # 90195 would be an excellent choice for your 2007 Nissan Pathfinder. That we are aware of all of the Pathfinders made in 2007 had a factory 7-way and would only require the install harness part # 3050-P. If somehow you didn't have the 7-way all you would need is the part # 118266 and you would have a fully functioning 7-way at the rear of the vehicle that would work well with the controller and harness I mentioned.

  • Best Electric Trailer Brake Controller for 2017 Nissan Titan
  • Electric Brake Controllers are not vehicle specific so they'll work on your 2017 Nissan Titan. What is vehicle specific is the wiring adapter. The # 3050-P adapter is confirmed to fit the 2016 Titans but not the 2017 as of yet because it hasn't been tested. There wasn't a lot of changes for 2017 so there's a good chance it will work. Check under your dash for a harness that has a connector shown in the picture I attached. For a brake controller I suggest the Prodigy P3 # 90195.

  • Brake Controller Wiring Harness for a Tekonsha Prodigy and 2013 Nissan Xterra
  • If your 2013 Nissan Xterra came with a factory installed 7-Way trailer connector then yes, connector # 3050-P is the correct one for your vehicle and brake controller. If the Xterra does not have the factory 7-Way or any trailer connector then you will need to add one. First you will need to install a 4-Way, # C56225. If the vehicle already has a 4-Way you can skip this step. Then you will need to add the 7-Way by using the 4 and 7-Way installation kit # ETBC7. I have included some links
