Parts Needed to Install 7-Way Traile Wiring Connector on 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee
Question:
So I have the brake controller you added to the link but I do not have the wiring harness that came with it. That was left in a previous vehicle.

To install a 7-way on your 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee that does not have the tow package you'll need to first start with a 4-way like part # 118425.
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.
