Tekonsha Brake Controller with Wiring - 90185-3015P

Tekonsha Prodigy Electric Trailer Brake Controller with General Motors Adapter (2003-2006)

Tekonsha introduces Prodigy, one of the most advanced and intelligent approaches to trailer brake controls. Prodigy, requiring no manual leveling, is a technological breakthrough among inertia-activated brake controls. Equipped with a self-adjusting sensing device similar to the one used in guided-missile technology to allow for easy, flexible installation - from nearly horizontal to nearly vertical - the Tekonsha Prodigy constantly adjusts itself to the position of the tow vehicle.

Features:

Applies power to the trailer brakes in proportion to vehicle's deceleration.
No level adjustment necessary - it adjusts itself to varying terrain as you drive.
Works proportionally in reverse - great for backing into tough spots.
Digital display depicts voltage delivery to trailer during braking.
Continual diagnostics check for proper connection, shorted magnet condition and much more.
"Boost" feature gives users the ability to apply more initial trailer braking power when towing heavier trailers.
Power-saving mode reduces drain on battery when vehicle is not in use.
Unique pocket mount allows for flexible mounting options.
Quick and easy disconnect feature allows user to remove and store the control when not in use.
- Vehicle specific wiring adapter is included to make installation simple
Rotary manual brake adjustment lever
Limited lifetime warranty

Specs:

Dimensions: 3-1/8" Wide x 5-1/8" Long x 1-3/16" High
Made for up to 4-axle trailer brake systems (2 to 8 Brakes)
Can be mounted between 0 degrees (level) and 70 degrees
Boost levels increase power up 0%, 13% and 25%
Power saving sleep mode draws 3.6 milliamp
Version 2.6

Installation:: The vehicle specific adapter has one end that plugs into the back of the brake controller while the other end plugs into the port in the black box located under the dash.
Note: If your vehicle has a factory installed hitch and 7-way connector, then all of the wires for the brake controller have already been run. If not, additional parts will be required to complete the installation of the brake controller.

Video Transcript for Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 2005 Chevrolet Silverado HD 2500

Today on this 2005 Chevrolet HD 2500 we are going to install part number 90185 the Prodigy brake controller and then the adapter cord for it part number 3015-P. The first thing we need to do is get underneath the dash and pull up the access cover to the panel. That is to the left of the brake pedal itself. Take off this panel right here, undo this nut. There is a series of sockets up here and we want the one that is second from the left and we will plug our adapter cord into that. That just snaps into position. Put our cord out of the way and then we will put our cover back into place. 00:47

We will leave that alone for now and we will take our mounting bracket and we are going to attach it to this metal part right here. In this case we are going to actually use the plastic pocket for it and we are just going to use a couple of these holes on the back side and attach it to the metal framing right here. Then we are going to use a couple of self tapping screws that we outsourced from the local hardware store instead of the hardware that came with the kit. 01:19

We have got that attached. Now we will run our cable through the back of it and then we will plug our brake controller into it and it will snap into the back of the Prodigy and just pop it into place. The next thing we need to do is zip tie our wires up out of the way. The next thing we are going to do is try it out on our trailer. You can see that we have it plugged in and our brake controller already found the trailer. It is showing a C for connection. 02:05

We will run through the functions real fast. The bottom lever is the manual override. This is our gain control that determines how much power is going out. All the way back towards you is 0 and all the way towards the front of the vehicle is full power. Then we will do our boost button here. Boost one, b1, and then we have boost two, b2, and boost three,b3. Basically the boost settings, what they do, is set a certain amount of power to the trailer so you can feel them working first, usually about one second after we start working then it reverts back to proportional mode. There you have it for part number 90185-3015P from Tekonsha.
