What Connections Need to be Made on 7-Way Adapter to Install Prodigy RF Controller
Question:
I have a 2014 MKX with a factory 4 pin trailer plug and want to replace with a 7 pin and want to use the Tekonsha Prodigy RF but not sure where to run the brake line to since there is no box. thanks

Expert Reply:
To use the Prodigy RF controller part # TK94FR you would not need to run the blue, brake output circuit at all. That circuit is for a brake controller installed in the vehicle. All you need to have connected on a 7-way adapter like the part # 37185 is the 12 volt circuit up to the battery through a circuit breaker like part # 9510.
I attached an install video for the controller for you to check out as well.
