Recommended Brake Controller for a 2018 Thor Ace Motorhome

Question:

I decided to go with the Tekonsha Voyager 9030 model. Do you carry the wiring harness 3035 that will work with this brake controller and my 2018 Thor ACE Motorhome?

For your 2018 Thor Ace Motorhome, I recommend using the Curt Spectrum Trailer Brake Controller part # C51170. The reason for this is because this unit is composed of two main parts, the control box and the output knob. The control box gets mounted out of site and then the output knob will get installed up on your dash for easy use and a very aesthetically pleasing look. The color output of the knob also helps with ease of use.

Since your motorhome is on a Ford F-53 chassis, you can use Curt Custom Wiring Adapter for Trailer Brake Controllers part # C51322 for a plug and play install.

I need a trailer brake controller and any required wire harness adapter. This is for a 2016 Winnebago Vista LX 35F. What do you recommend?

For your Winnebago I really like the Tekonsha P2 # 90885. The Vista LX 35F is built on the Ford F-53 chassis so the correct Plug-In Harness # 3035-P can be used to allow for a simple installation. If you don't yet have a 7-Way mounted at the bumper you will also need part # 37185.

@ChrisR I already ordered a Tekonsha Primus IQ. Will it work or should I have you exchange it.

No need to exchange - the P3 was just my recommendation. The Primus IQ # TK90160 is a great brake controller as well and will work great on your Winnebago. You honestly can't go wrong with a Tekonsha controller.

In order to use the Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller (9030) part # 39510 on your 2018 Thor ACE Motorhome you will need the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers part # 3035-P.
