- How to Install a Prodigy Brake Controller on a 2010 Toyota Tacoma with Factory Tow Package

When you do find the harness, make sure that you also attach the separate white ground wire to a

- Locating Brake Controller Port on Toyota and Lexus Vehicles
- Toyota and Lexus typically places the connector for the brake controller in the location you describe. The connector is square and white in color. The easiest way to determine if you have the correct connector is to compare the connector you have located to the connector on the wiring adapter, part # 3040-P.
You can also use a circuit tester, like part # 3808 to test the pins on the connector you have located. One pin should show a constant 12-volts, and another should only show voltage when
