What 7-Way Circuits Need to be Active to Install Prodigy RF Brake Controller

Question:

I have the correct 7 pin connector factory installed on the GL but it doesnt seem to have power to the #2 or #4 pin. It seems that the Prodigy RF trailer mounted unit requires power to these pins. How do I connect them to a power source on the GL? Is there a fuse connector? Run a wire back from the battery directly to the connector?

For the Prodigy RF brake controller part # TK94FR to function it needs to be plugged into a 7-way that has a working 12 volt power circuit and working stop turn circuits. These pins are 3:00 position for the right turn and 9:00 for left turn.

Sounds like your 12 volt power circuit isn't active which is pretty easy to do. You just need to run a 10 gauge wire like part # 10-1-1 (sold by the foot) through a circuit breaker like part # 9510 to the positive post of the battery from the pin in the 2:00 position.

The #4 position you may be referring to is the brake output circuit. This circuit would not need to be active because if it was that would imply you have a brake controller already installed on the vehicle.

I attached an install video for this controller for you to check out as well.
