Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500

Hi there Mercedes owners. Today in your 2021 Sprinter 3500, we're gonna be taking a look at and showing you how to install REDARC's Tow-Pro Elite trailer brake controller. To assist us with this install, we're also going to be using a plug-and-play harness from Tekonsha. We will still have to do a little bit of splicing but it's gonna make our world a whole lot easier. REDARC's Tow-Pro Elite is going to be a very hidden brake controller that's installed in our Mercedes here. That will allow us to have a very small footprint here in our dash that's gonna give us all the typical outputs that our regular brake controller was without that massive controller that would be hanging here. more

Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 2013 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 90885

Today on the 2013 Sprinter van, were going to install brake controller part number 90885. Now, this Sprinter van has a tow package port. Now, the port is located underneath the driver seat. What we need to do is actually remove the driver seat. There are four bolts on the bottom that need to be removed. Now this doesnt use common bolts but we did find out that 11 mm 12 point socket will work with these bolts and also, it does help to use 11 mm ratchet wrench as well. Now, first three bolts are relatively easy to get to and to remove. Now, the back bolt by emergency break is a little hard to get to so it makes things a little easier if we remove the three bolts and then twist the whole chair around the bolt to give us some working room for our ratchet wrench. more
