Trailer Wiring Recommendation for 2011 Chevy Equinox
Question:
I have a 2011 Chevy Equinox that i am wanting to wire a trailer harness on it. My trailer has a 7 way connector. Do you have a product that will work for me. Thanks.

Expert Reply:
You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 56094.
Now if your trailer does not have brakes all you would need is the part # 37185 as an adapter to convert the 4-way to a 7-way.
If you do have trailer brakes you would need the # ETBC7 instead of the # 37185 and a brake controller. This kit comes with everything needed to wire up the 7-way and install a brake 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.
