Question:
do you have a vidio.showing how to install electric brake controller?

Expert Reply:
On a 2006 Jeep Liberty installing a brake controller requires that it be hardwired to the vehicle. hardwiring is not vehicle specific so you can follow along with any video showing installation using a 4 and 7 way installation kit # ETBC7. I have linked a video for you to view.
If your Liberty came with a factory 7-Way, you can still use the video as a guide but you would not need the ETBC7 kit. Instead you would need kit # 5506. You would hardwire the black, white, and red wires of a brake controller as described for ETBC7 but there will be a light green wire behind the driver side kick panel for output to the trailer connector to attach to the brake controller blue wire.
I have also included a link to an FAQ article explaining the ETBC7 installation.
For a brake controller, I recommend the P2, # 90885, because it is easy to set up, easy to use, and it is reliable.
