Does Curt 7-Way Harness part # CU86FR Come with Converter Box

Question:

Greetings. I had a question on the 7 way trailer Wiring harness CU86FR. In the description it says that it does not come with the converter. What is the converter that it doesnt come with. Also, do I need to Hook this up when a break controller or will it work as is? Unless I also purchase a break controller will I not be able to tow anything? Thank you.

The Curt trailer wiring harness part # CU86FR that you referenced does come with a converter. It is mentioned in the description and pictured in product pictures as well.

So the easiest to install brake controller that also works really well is the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180. Basically this just plugs into an active 7-way and once you sync it to your phone it's ready to go. This brake controller is proportional which means it senses the amount of deceleration your tow vehicle is applying and applies the trailer brakes in a relative way.
