Brake Controller Recommendation for 2006 Dodge Ram 3500 Towing Trailer with Hydraulic Brakes
Question:
I have a 2006 Dodge 3500 and I would like to know what controller I need. My trailer is a 2006 4star horse trailer and has the Carlisle hba-10 1000 psi unit on it.

Expert Reply:
The brake controller I'd recommend for your 2006 Dodge Ram 3500 for use with the HydraStar brake kit # HBA-10 is the Prodigy P3 part # 90195 with the quick install harness part # 3020-P. Most brake controllers won't activate electric over hydraulic brake actuators but the P3 has a special setting for that style of brakes so it will work well with them.
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.
