Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 2006 Dodge Ram Pickup

Hi there Ram owners. Today in your 2006 Ram 1500, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install Tekonsha's Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller.Our customer has recently been hauling his Winnebago here, and you can see this big old trailer, and this is what he's been using to haul it here, this old impulse brake controller. He's been having a lot of issues with the brakes applying too hard, they're just abrupt, this is an old time-delay model. He just doesn't like the way it feels. He gets a lot of issues with the way it porpoises from applying a little bit too hard, especially just going around parking lots and things like that, it's even more noticeable.So we're going to get this old nasty wiring he's got and get this guy out of here, and get him something a little more modern that's going to smooth out his towing experience.Tekonsha's Prodigy P3 Brake Controller is a premium brake controller that has pretty much every option that you would want. It works with trailers that have one to four axles and provides you with some extra features that many of the other ones don't. more

Best 2006 Dodge Ram Pickup Trailer Brake Controller Options

Speaker 1: Today we're going to be taking a look at the best brake controllers available for the 2006 Dodge Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500.Now all of the brake controllers that we're going to look at today are proportional controllers. It's a newer technology available and it really is just a lot better than what the time-delayed systems used to be. Basically, with the time-delayed system it was preprogrammed when your brakes would engage. You'd hit the brake in your vehicle, there might be a pause before the brakes on your trailer actually engage. With the proportional controller, we don't have to worry about that. If we hit our brakes on our truck, our brakes are going to start being applied and they're going to be applied in proportion to how we're braking in our truck. more

Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 2006 Dodge Ram Pickup 39510

Today in our 2006 Dodge Ram pickup, we'll be installing the Tekonsha Voyager Brake Controller for 1 to 4 axles, part number 39510. We'll use this in conjunction with our Tekonsha Plug and Play direct fit wiring harness, part number 3020-P. Now to begin our install, we'll first go ahead and locate the manufacturer's brake controller port. The brake controller port is located behind the parking brake pedal, above the manufacturer's main wiring harness. This is a blue connector and is secured here to the ECM. Now we've located it. We'll go ahead and pop it free so that we can plug the direct fit wiring harness directly into it. To plug the harness into it, we'll take the white connector of our direct fit harness and plug in to the blue port. Once we have it plugged in, we'll go ahead and leave our wires hang, or if you can get your connector back in place, you can go ahead and do that now. Next, we'll move over to mounting the brake controller. more
