Recommended Trailer Connector and Electric Brake Controller for 2009 Toyota RAV4
Question:
Im adding electric brakes on my boat trailer and will be pulling it with my 2009 Toyota RAV4. It currently has a 4 pin flat connector harness on it for a popup camper and cycle trailer that I also pull. Are there any plug and play wiring harnesses and adapter for the controller??? Thanks

For your 2009 Toyota RAV4, the 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit for Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 12 Gauge Wires # ETBC7L is the easiest option to install requiring you to only run a wire to your vehicle battery. Then you can use the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 which does not require any wiring into your vehicle. It is plug and play using Bluetooth and a mobile device. I've attached a couple videos to assist.
