Does the Light Stay on w/ the Curt Echo Brake Controller?
Question:
Just finished installing the Curt Echo Mobile Brake controller on my daughters car, we havent programmed or hooked up to the trailer yet. My question is do you leave the controller plugged into the 7 pin connector all the time? and does the light stay lit all the time on the controller. thanks Dave Furner

Hey Dave welcome back! No, you don't have to leave the Curt Echo item # C51180 plugged into the trailer. Only while you are towing your trailer. The light will eventually go off when the Echo is disconnected from a power source.
