Parts Needed to Install a Brake Controller in a 2012 Nissan NV
Question:
Hi I have a 2012 Nissan NV 2500 V8 SV cargo van. Looking for the plug and play adapter for the tekonsha brake controllers. Is this 3050P the correct adapter?

I wish there was a plug and play harness that would allow you to install a Tekonsha brake controller but it looks like you are going to have to hardwire a brake controller to your 2012 Nissan NV.
The first thing you will need is a 4-way if you do not have one already at the rear of your vehicle. For that I would recommend the Tow Ready Wiring Harness # 118553. I attached installation instructions for this product for you to check out also.
Next, you will need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that a brake controller can be installed to it. For that you will need brake controller installation kit part # ETBC7. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product also on a 2012 Nissan NV just like yours for you to check out also. You will need an extension wire for the # ETBC7 as well since your vehicle is so long. For that you would want part number # 10-2-1.
