Do the Wire Colors on the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter Match the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite

Question

Question:

There is a plug under the dash . The Takonsha harness plugs in it ok. I’m wondering if the wires are color coded on the other end to attach to the red arc wires from the control unit not the knob.

The colors on the wiring between the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR and the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers # 3064-P will match in terms of function. It sounds like you are wanting to use the # 3064-P to install the # RED44FR. No plug is present under the dash, but the needed wires are already run. You will connect the brake controller wiring with the vehicle wiring already present under the dash.

Since the # RED44FR comes with a wiring harness, and the plug is not present to use a custom wiring harness like the # 3064-P, this will not be necessary for installation or make the process easier.

Yes, like I said before those colors match in terms of function between the # 3064-P and the # RED44FR. Since you do have the factory tow port, I recommend using the Redarc Tow-Pro Wiring Adapter for Tekonsha Brake Controller Harness # 331-TPH-017. This will allow you to use the Tekonsha wiring harness with the # RED44FR without the need to splice the wires together.
