2013 FJ Cruiser 7-Pin Trailer Connection and Brake Controller Recommendation
Question:
Hello, I have a 2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser that currently has a 4-pin trailer connector, but I need a 7-pin connector and brake controller for a trailer Im looking to haul. What parts do I need to set it up?

Expert Reply:
To convert your 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install a brake controller in your 2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser will require the kit part # ETBC7.
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P3 Brake Controller part # 90195. 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.
