Tekonsha Brake Controller with Wiring - 90185-3020P

Tekonsha Prodigy Electric Trailer Brake Controller with Dodge Adapter

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 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.

Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 2005 Dodge Durango

Video Transcript for Trailer Brake Controller Installation - 2005 Dodge Durango

Today we are going to do our install on a 2005 Dodge Durango with the tow package from the factory, and we are going to install Part Number 90185, the Tekonsha Prodigy brake controller. And we are also going to install the accompanying brake control harness for the Dodge tow package, and that is Part Number 3020P. To begin our install, we will start with the bracket to hold our brake controller. And that is actually pretty easy. There is already an existing screw underneath the dash, and we are going to use that. We use a torx bit and we are going to go ahead and take that down. Then we run our bracket right back through it, and we are going to overlap so it will sandwich the plastic back up there like it was originally.

Since the bracket is in place now, we can move it back and forth as we need it. Line it up straight and hold the brake controller against it to make sure it is facing the right way. Then we go ahead and temporarily mount our brake controller. This way you can move it left or right to make sure it is facing directly forward. Then once you have it set the way you want it, go ahead and take down the brake controller and then install the other screw. We are not using the screws that came with the brake controller this time. We are using a self-tapping screw because it is going to go right through the plastic and it is going to go right into the piece of metal back here. So we need a self-tapping screw to attach to that. All right, we have our brake controller, before we install it for the last time, and we will go ahead and install the wire harness. It just clips into the back. This other half plugs underneath the dash into a port along the firewall. We will show you that later. We will go ahead and install this.

What we have highlighted here is the port we need to plug in and it is the blue port with the four blades in there. This is located right behind the parking brake pedal along the side of the body here. And then there is this junction box right here for the wire that goes from the inside to the outside of the vehicle. And the blue port is right next to it, and that is the one we need to use. The next thing we are going to do is go ahead and zip-tie the wires to the harness underneath to keep it out of the way. Okay, that is it. Pretty easy install. We covered Part Number 90185 from Tekonsha, the Prodigy brake controller, and its accompanying harness, 3020-P, also from Tekonsha.

Awesome product I bought this product based upon the video installation shown for my 2006 Durango. It could NOT have been any easier!!!!! I bought the matching wiring harness and everything went in perfectly, just as they showed it. I was even able to find a spot IN my dashboard to mount the controller. I will continue to shop here based upon how smoothly everything went!1754

Quick and Easy Install & Use Took me longer to decide where I wanted to mount it than it took to install with the pigtail. Easy to set, easy to read display. etrailer.com had great communication and fast shipping (ordered in the morning, shipped that afternoon). Couldn't be happier. Thanks!1606
