I recommend the Curt Echo # C51180 as being the easiest trailer brake controller to install on your 2023 Toyota RAV4. If you already have a 7-way this will connect into the 7-way and allow you to control the brakes from your smart phone using the Curt Echo app. If you do not have any trailer wiring yet you will need to start with the 4-Way # 118801 and then add the 7-Way Upgrade # ETBC7L. This upgrade kit provides power to the 7-way to operate the Curt Echo.
