Recommended Wiring for Tow Package Activation on 2018 Toyota Tacoma
Question:
Where is the fuse and what wiring for the Tow Package on a 2018 Tacoma
asked by: Spence
Expert Reply:
For your 2018 Toyota Tacoma, the best way to get your tow package wiring if you have the facoty 7-way is to use the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR along with wiring adapter # 3031-S. This may require adding fuses to activate your tow package. I have looked at the owners manual online and they don't offer the location information, so you will need to check your manual that came with your truck.
I've attached the instructions to assist and recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 for your brake controller. This is a customer favorite with the LCD screen that takes code deciphering out of the equation giving you the information you need in an easy to understand manner.
