Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 2013 Ford Van

Rob: Hey everybody, Rob here at etrailer.com, and today we're going to be taking a look at the Tekonsha Primus IQ brake controller on our 2013 Ford van. The Primus IQ is going to be a really good example of a traditional style brake controller, where we are going to have this small box mounted to the dash. Now I particularly like this one because it doesn't have too many fancy whistles, but it's going to do exactly what we need it to. It's going to send a signal from our van back to our trailer and apply the brakes.What's really nice is this is a proportional brake controller, which means it's going to be sending those signals in the exact same time and intensity that we apply the brakes they're going to send that to the van, opposed to some of the older style ones which we're time delayed, which there was just a preset time and then it would send the brake pressure back and apply the brakes. This is not going to be putting the brakes on if we don't need it. If we're sitting in a stoplight, have our foot on our brake, it's not going to be applying the brakes because it's going to realize that we're not moving. more

Hey, everybody. Ryan here at etrailer. Today on our 2020 Ford E-Series, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 brake controller. We're going to be installing this in conjunction with the brake controller adapter plug, as well as the Hopkins seven and four- way trailer connector kit.One of the main questions we get in regards to brake controllers is which one to use, because there's tons of different options out there. Well, in my opinion, you really can't go wrong with the P3, and that's because there's going to be multiple different settings and adjustments. You can really customize it to your particular application, but yet it's still going to be easy to use and not really confusing.For example, on our customer's vehicle today, it's actually a shuttle bus, and so, if you think about it, the weights are going to constantly be changing depending on how many passengers you have inside here, or pulling multiple different trailers. more
