Expert Reply:
If your 2017 Nissan Pathfinder does not have trailer wiring already what you need is the 7-way kit part # 118273 which comes with everything needed to install a fully functional 7-way. See install video.
Now for an install harness for the brake controller all you need is the part # 3050-P.
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. This will be the last brake controller you buy. It can easily be transferred to future vehicles as well.
