Recommended Easy to Use Brake Controller for a 2021 Mercedes G63
Question:
Which is the easiest to install Thanks
asked by: Richard C
Expert Reply:
The easiest to use and install brake controller we currently have will be the Curt Echo # C51180.However, I do have to mention that the install will still require running some wires and connecting a few things, it will be less than is needed to wire a controller into the cab.
With that being said, our 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit for Trailer Brake Controller Installation # ETBC7L will need a previously installed or existing 4 Flat to piggyback off of, but will get all the power needed to get the Echo # C51180 up and running. I included an install video for you to check out, but keep in mind that it is a different vehicle.
One way to make this even easier to use, is the Manual Override Button # C83HR. This works in place of the manual override button in the app on your smart phone, once the initial set up is completed.
