Expert Reply:
Determining what the best setting on your Tekonsha Primus IQ # TK90160 is for towing your FunFinder 189 trailer with your Nissan Pathfinder is just a matter of doing some test runs.
Since each towing setup is different there really is no pre-determined setting for different trailer sizes or weights. You will simply want to follow the instructions that came with the Primus IQ.
Connect your trailer to your Pathfinder and then with the engine running hold the manual override all the way to the left and adjust your Power Know til you get "6.0" as the power setting.
From there you will just need to start driving at 25 mph and then fully apply the manual override. If you need more or less power to the brakes then you will need to adjust the brake controller accordingly and then do another test run.
