2004 Toyota Land Cruiser Brake Controller Recommendation and Install Harness
Question:
Nobody seems to be able to find the harness that the controller plugs into. Do you know where in the car it is? I have the towpackage

To activate the brakes of your trailer while towing your 2004 Land Cruiser you will need two additional components. You will need a brake controller and a brake controller install harness.
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.
Now to wire this brake controller your vehicle with a factory 7-way you will need the install harness part # 3040-P. Simply plug one end of the adapter into your brake controller and then plug the other end into the built-in harness beneath your vehicle's dash.
We have had customers state that the location of the brake controller port on the Toyota Land Cruiser is under the dash behind the switches for the mirror. You will need to take apart the lower dash panel and then push out the switch panel. There is no need to detach any switch, it all hangs out just fine according to one customer. I have included the pictures they sent to us.
