Brake Controller Installation in 2010 Nissan Pathfinder LE V8 without Factory 7-Way Connector
Question:
Just bought a 2010 Pathfinder LE V8 equipped with a four pin plug and need to install a brake controller and a seven pin connector. Do these relays fit in the relay junction box, Ive gotten conflicting reports and the local Nissan dealer parts shop are absolutely no help.

Expert Reply:
The Curt Relay kit # C57000 that you referenced is intended for trucks like yours that did not come with a factory 7-way tow package. These install in the power distribution box under the hood as shown in the linked video.
Since your truck will not likely have the under-dash port for use with a Tekonsha quick-connect wiring adapter # 3050-P your controller installation will be hard-wired. You'll use our brake controller install kit # ETBC7 which includes wiring, connectors, circuit breakers and the 7-way, which will plug in to your existing 4-pole. Please see the linked article and video.
You can then use a controller like the popular and reliable Prodigy P2 # 90885.
