Brake Controller and Wiring Recommendation for 2014 Dodge Durango

Question:

I am looking for a trailer breaking system for my 2014 dodge Durango. I am used to the ones you can adjust per your liking and road conditions. Which one do you recommend? Also how do I know which plug/ if it comes with the standard 7 way wiring? I am going to try and install myself. Car didnt originally come with tow package but was wired and has hitch via UHaul. Thanks

If your 2014 Dodge Durango didn't come with a factory trailer hitch it would not have came with a factory 7-way connector at the rear. Most likely you have a 4-way at the rear of your vehicle now and would only need the # ETBC7 to convert it to a 7-way and install the controller.

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. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes.

You can also adjust the sensitivity of the braking too so if you wanted it to more or less sensitive to deceleration that is an option as well.
