Can Prodigy RF Brake Controller Install on a 2004 Porsche Cayenne Turbo Towing 2009 Airstream Bambi
Products Featured in This Question
Question:
I have a 2004 Porsche Cayenne Turbo and I was wondering if the Prodigy RF Brake Controller will work towing a 2009 Airstream Bambi with LEDs. If it is compatible, is it just plug and play, or are there additional parts I need to order?

In order to use the Tekonsha Prodigy RF Brake Controller - Proportional - Trailer Mounted, # TK94FR, your 2004 Porsche Cayenne will have to have a 7-Way connector. If you do not have a 7-way connector on your vehicle then you will need a 7 and 4 way installation kit # ETBC7.
You will need to plug your 4-way connector into the ETBC7 and run the black power wire to the vehicle battery and ground the white wire. You will have two additional wires, blue and purple, and those will just need to be taped off. I have attached an article explaining how to route a power wire for a trailer wiring harness for you to review.
If you do not have a 4-Way connector at the back of your vehicle, then you will also need to install a trailer wiring harness, # C59496, before installing the ETBC7 kit. This will give you the required 4-Way connector at the back of your vehicle to connect to ETBC7.
Your 2009 Airstream Bambi with LED lights is compatible with this brake controller and once you have all of the necessary wiring installed, the 7-Way connector from your trailer will plug into the brake controller, which will be mounted on the trailer, and the brake controller will plug into the vehicle side connector and you will be ready to tow.
I have provided links to installation instructions for the brake controller and wiring harness.
