Recommended Proportional Brake Controller for 2015 Ford F-150 with # 22292 Adapter
Question:
I currently have a Draw-Tite 5504 timed response brake controller, but dont like how it brakes on my 29 foot travel trailer 8500 lb loaded weight. I asked my local dealer about a proportional controller but was told they no longer install them because they have to be mounted a specific way, level, and are not as reliable. Would there be any good quality proportional controllers that would simply use the plug I have now on my 2015 F150?

Expert Reply:
I recommend the easy to use proportional brake controller P2 # 90885. This will use the current adapter # 22292, that you have mounted in your 2015 Ford F-150.
The Tekonsha P2 # 90885 is a great brake proportional brake controller. A proportional brake controller means it senses how the tow vehicle is slowing or stopping and applies the trailer's brakes with the same intensity. This is the best selling controller on the market because of how easy it is to setup and use, and how well it works. The P3 # 90195 is like the P2's big brother it has all the same great features but it also comes with a full display screen instead of codes that need deciphering. Both controllers will use the # 22292 adapter you currently have in your truck.
I have linked the above mentioned products as well as a installation of both controllers on a similar truck to yours for your convenience.
