Parts Needed to Install Wireless Brake Controller on 2023 Honda CR-V and 23' Toyota Highlander
Question:
I have a customer with a 23 Honda Crv that has nothing on it for wiring, they want to put a brake controller on it. What do I need to accomplish this? They also have a 23 Highlander as well that already has a 4 flat on it what do they need for this to add a brake controller?

Expert Reply:
The first thing you need to add a brake controller to a 2023 Honda CR-V is a 4-way trailer wiring harness. For that you would want the Curt # C56370.
Next you need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way. Since there are two vehicles I would recommend installing the 7-way kit part # ETBC7L on both so that you can use a single wireless brake controller on both with the Curt Mobile Echo part # C51180. This plugs into an active 7-way and once synced to a smart phone is ready to tow.
So on both vehicles you'd need the # ETBC7L installed so you'd need two of these.
