Installation of Tekonsha Brake Controller Adapter
This adapter plugs into the port that is built into the electric junction box beneath your vehicle's dash. The black box is located to the left of the steering column, just above the carpet. To plug in the adapter, first remove the cover on the box. The adapter plugs into the second slot from the left, on the top row.
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.

Very easy to install and setup. Came with very simple instructions and my old controller bracket was the exact same as this one!

It was exactly a plug and play option for my 2007 Silverado 2500HD Classic. The harness worked flawlessly with the brake controller and has been perfect for many trips so far.
by: James03/27/2024
Instructions were simple and straight forward. Unit is very responsive and simple to use. The prefabricated chord was nice but wished it were longer for more mounting options. Still very happy with the product and its performance.

I ordered this brake controller about a week ago and received it today (4-18-20).
Im always working on things and my old lady gets bored, so today was sort of our day! Well i decided id make a bet, 20 bucks i can have it installed in 15 minutes!! She agreed and the race was on!! I ran out, grabbed my drill, a small drill bit, a hex head bit, and got to work! I opted for the removable bracket for worry somebody may break in and steal it.
It marked two holes, drilled them with a very small bit, and then screwed the proveded screws in, i then popped the brake controller in, ran the wiring ( sepratly provided
by etrailer.com, for my specific vehicle, a 2004 gmc yukon)above everything to the plug box under the dash, plugged it in, put the cover back on, and wallah!! 15 minutes exactly!
This thing looks great, works great, and is priced great!

I know this isn’t a pic of the item, BUT it wouldn’t have been possible without. Plug and Play. I bought this because we bought a trailer from a dealer and they required the truck to have trailer brakes. This plugs in under dash, if your truck has 7 pin. I did it without checking to make sure it was activated. Went to dealer, 130 miles away and 4000 feet in elevation to pu trailer. As I was pulling out and first hit brakes the trailer locked up. (There is an adjustment device, that purchased separately, or in a kit pugs into wiring harness that plugs into truck to activate trailer brakes). So I adjusted it and everything worked beautifully. Oh my gosh I have pulled trailers for years but never a TT. Tons of car trailers but never with brakes. Brakes are awesome when going over passes of 5k elevation.
THIS COMPANY ROCKS. The only issues I have had with this company is my own ordering fault. I have used them for years and indirect people to them.
THANK YOU.

Easy install, just plug it in, use the 2 self tapping screws for the mounting bracket, mount the controller with 2 screws, a couple of tie straps, DONE Instructions for use very clear.

No problems. Works great.
by: Timothy07/12/2023
Plugs for both ends fit just right. Using this adapter eliminated having to splice the cord from the Brake Control Unit to the GM supplied plug you get with the Trailering Package. Much more professional.
The only improvement would be to make it at least 6" longer. I placed the unit under the dash near the center of the dash and the cable just made it.

Great Customer Service, great product!!
by: Erich 04/02/2024
Worked as expected.
by: Randy08/28/2023
Easy to install. If there wants an improvement I would make it a little longer to provide more options for locating the controller.

Was looking at another system and the website recommended another one (which is the one I bought) and included the additional wiring harness to plug directly into my vehicle. No wiring, just plug and play. One of the easiest and best setups I've ever done! Thank you for your help.

I was so stressed out trying to figure out what I had signed myself up for. I saw your video. Ordering the parts was idiot proof, and the installation was so easy an completely no-nothing girl installed it less than 30 minutes. Will definitely be looking to you all the next time I need something. Thank you!

Still loving it! It fit perfectly in both my 2003 suburban and Silverado. It gives me such piece of mind when I am towing my camper.
by: Max 12/16/2020
Concerning this wire adapter, I was pleasantly impressed that the wiring was covered in a black wiring loom, very professional looking. With this wiring adapter it makes it extremely easy to connect it to the trucks built in trailer plug as well to the brake controller.

- Trailer Brake Wiring Connections Under Hood of 2003 Silverado 1500You can refer to the linked help article for details on the wiring under the hood of your 2003 Silverado that you need to connect for trailer brake controller installation. There are both red and blue wires, as you noted. These are normally located next to the fuse block on the cab side as shown in the photo taken from the article. There is one wire of each color. If you have a factory 7-way you will need a wiring adapter to plug the controller in to the port under the dash. For instance...

- Recommendation for Simple, Inexpensive Brake Controller for a 2003 GMC SierraFor your application I recommend the Draw-Tite Activator IV # 5504 which will install in your 2003 GMC Sierra with the Adapter # 3015-P. The Activator IV is a cost-effective time delayed controller that comes with a limited lifetime warranty and only has 4 buttons plus the manual slide for manually applying the trailer brakes. All of this basically means that this is a simple inexpensive controller like what you're looking for. Attached is a sample installation video that you can check...
view full answer... - Is a Brake Controller Necessary for a 2014 Dodge Ram Towing a 7 x 14 ft TrailerBefore you decide if you want a brake controller or not you should check with your local laws and regulations to determine what towing setups are required to have trailer brakes activated by a brake controller. Some states require trailer brakes and a brake controller on any vehicle that is towing a trailer. It may not seem like your trailer would weigh much, but in an emergency situation where you need to stop abruptly inches do matter. Not trying to sound too dramatic, but it is the...

I have attached a video that will show you all the wiring inside the under hood fuse panel. There is a blue wire that may not be completely connected which would cause an issue like you are having. It is a good time to check that the other 2 red wires are also installed on the mounting studs as well....

However, you don't actually need to do that, the 2006 Silverado actually has a connector under the dash in the junction box behind the emergency brake pedal as shown in the provided photo that lets you directly plug in the controller. Once the black cover of the junction box is removed, plug the harness into the second from the left slot in the top row. For a Tekonsha brake...

- How to Wire a 2010 GMC Yukon XL for a Brake ControllerYes, you will need to connect two wires under the hood of your 2011 GMC Yukon XL to wire a brake controller to your vehicles brake controller circuitry. To attach those wires to your vehicle you will need a Zinc Plated Hex Flange Nut - M6, part # 185916, and a Zinc Plated Hex Flange Nut, part # 185917. I attached an FAQ article on how this is done below for you to check out, as well as the video that you watched of the brake controller being installed on a 2011 Chevy Silverado that you...

I would check several things to determine what the problem is. Some of this may seem redundant since you have done a lot of troubleshooting already. Since you first encountered the problem when you connected the gooseneck to the in-bed connector, I would check the grounds for both the truck side and trailer side to make sure there is no corrosion and that they are attached properly. You can...

It is possible that a 7-Way was added later and the wiring and circuit breaker you see are related. But, the 2003...

- Brake Controller Recommendation for a 2005 Chevy Silverado with Factory 7-Way ConnectorIn order to activate the electric trailer brakes on the trailer you will need a brake controller for your 2005 Chevy Silverado. Since you have a factory installed 7-Way already, installing a brake controller will be easy. First for a brake controller I recommend the P2 # 90885. It is one of our most popular controllers because it is easy to set up and use and because it is reliable. You will also need wiring harness # 3015-P to plug the controller into the junction box under the dash....

However, the # 3015-P harness that you referenced could be modified to work for you. It would require you moving the red wire to the opposite corner of the connector. You will need to press up on the release tab of the connector that holds the pin to the connector and the wire will pull out from the back of the connector. All you would need to do is insert it into the back...

The black box is located to the left of the steering column, just above the carpet. To plug in the adapter, first remove the cover on the box. The adapter plugs into the second slot from the left, on the top row.

For your brake controller, I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 because it is an easy to read and understand controller that is adjustable to your preferences. It has 3 levels of boost and doesn't require any code deciphering. You will get the information you need at a quick glance. This controller will activate your trailer brakes with the same amount of force and at the same time...

Typically the wires on a GM OEM harness are as follows: Dark blue = brake out Red = 12V power Light blue = brake light switch Black = ground Since the colors don't seem to be the same on your harness, we can also try to connect the brake controller by using the wire locations on your harness....
