What Adapter do I Need to Convert My 4-Way to a 7-Way on My 2022 Toyota Highlander?

Question:

I am getting a 2022 Highlander Hybrid LE with the tow package. It comes with a 4 pin wiring harness. Is there an adaptor to convert to a 7 pin to connect to a travel trailer so we can trickle charge and run a brake controller?

Yes! The part you are looking for is the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller - 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat # ETBC7. This will convert your current 4-way into a 7-way on your 2022 Toyota Highlander.

To add a brake controller, I recommend the Tekonsha Voyager # 39510 or the Curt Echo # C51180. Both of these controllers are proportional controllers which means that the controller activates the trailer brakes in proportion to your vehicle's braking action. The Voyager is more of a traditional-style controller than requires mounting into the dashboard of your vehicle near the steering wheel. On the other hand, the Curt Echo allows you to control the settings of your controller with the ease of your Smart device.

If you need help installing these components, I went ahead and attached some installation videos to walk you through the processes.
