Install your electric trailer brake controller quickly and easily with this custom wiring adapter. Simply plug one end of the adapter into your brake controller and then plug the other end into the built-in ports beneath your vehicle's dash.
Features:
Note: To illuminate your vehicle and trailer brake lights when you activate the manual override on your brake controller, use in conjunction with the Tekonsha brake controller converter with 7-way adapter (30235-P - sold separately). Required for use in the state of California.
To install your electric brake controller, you need to connect the wiring of the controller to your vehicle. Certain auto manufacturers offer pre-wired options, typically known as tow packages, wherein wiring is run for you from the dash to the trailer connector on the back of your vehicle. When this is done, a port is installed at your dash so that you can easily plug in a brake controller.
This adapter plugs into the ports on your vehicle's built-in brake control wiring harness. The harness is located underneath the dash, to the left of the steering column, and it is taped to another harness near the emergency brake pedal.
No hardwiring is required to install this adapter. After you plug it into the factory port, you simply plug the other end of the adapter directly into your electric trailer brake controller. Because there are no wires to connect, installation is not permanent. You can unplug and remove your brake controller at any time to transfer it to another vehicle or securely stow it away.

Today with this 2013 Dodge Ram 1500, we're going to be installing the Tekonsha P3 brake controller, part number 90195 and the custom fit brake control harness for this vehicle, part number 3023-P. The first thing we need to do is set our mounting bracket for our controller. Pick a suitable location that won't be in the way of the driver's knees, but will allow easy access to the manual override switch on the bottom of the controller. Once you've found a location for the bracket, make sure that there are no electrical components behind it before you secure it with the included screws.With our controller in place, we'll move on to the brake control harness. The next thing we need to do is find the electrical connections up underneath the dash of our Ram pickup. The first connection we need to make is the large square connector on the harness.
This connection will provide our ground, brake controller output, and our power. This connector on our vehicle is located directly above the gas pedal on the inside of the dash, just on the other side of the plastic about where your knee would be. You may also find this connector in the old location like where you used to in the 2012 and previous models and that's located up above the emergency brake pedal equipment. Well make this connection and then we'll move on to the brake signal connection. That's the single red wire with the small square connector.
If we go up directly above the brake pedal, we'll find this connector taped to a wire harness up high underneath the dash. We'll make this connection and all of our connections under the dash will be complete. Now there's a bit of access wire on the red connector. What we'll do is take a couple of zip-ties to secure it up and out of the way so we don't get it tangled in our feet or any of the pedals. We'll use a zip-tie here and another zip-tie here to secure the access and keep it out of the way.Now we'll take the black four-pin rectangular connector and fit it into the back of our prodigy break controller.
Once we make the connection to our brake control, we'll take any access left on the harness, coil it together and zip-tie it out of the way.That's it for our install of the Tekonsha P3 brake controller, part number 90195 with the custom fit harness, part number 3023-P, on our 2013 Dodge Ram 1500.

Everything I ordered works great. E trailers instructional videos help a lot. 715672
Worked as expected and super easy to install. etrailer made sure I had the correct part for my truck and shipping was super fast. 715664
Works as described. Use to tow a 24 ft toy hauler. This kit keeps the weight distributed and significantly reduces sway. Be sure to follow instructions and set up correctly. Did not do this initially and did not achieve the best results. Once set up was correct I am very happy with performance. etrailer delivered super fast. Great company. 715663
This is an awesome Brake controller. Easy to follow installation instructions for wire harness..Quick inline adapters in most cases so very minimal splicing. Great quick release cradle for controller so you can swap between vehicles. Easy to change gain settings for use with different trailers or just different road conditions. I would recommend this product to anybody wanting or needing a brake controller. Love Love Love this product. 705886

Product and harness are designed for easy installation. Only difficulty was accessing my truck's plug which was tucked way up behind the dash. P3 works great. 688388
Works good. 675023
Such an easy install. I watched the install video on YouTube and was able to click on links in the video description and simply order the parts. From ordering to install the entire process took 20-30 minutes. Once installed the set up was simple all I have left to do is hook up my trailer and test the control unit. 674927
I bought the Tekonsha Brake Control Wiring Adapter to make my experience easier and it did just that. Installed the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 - Trailer Brake Controller, plugged in the connectors on the wiring adapter and everything worked just as advertised. Beats splicing and crimping under the dash in 90 degree weather. Also customer service at etrailer is great, very easy to contact and are always there to answer any questions. Prices are very competitive and got my items in 2 days. Thanks and I will be doing business with them again. 666429

This adapter works perfectly to plug and play for my new brake controller. 571760
Worked or about 5 minutes then died no power. 566491
Wed be happy to assist in troubleshooting your brake controller installation. As a first step, try doing a hard reset of the controller. Unplug the wiring harness from the rear of the controller. After 5 minutes, plug it back in. If you still arent getting power, unplug the controller again and use a circuit tester on the contacts of the connector fed by the black wire. If you see no power at that contact, check the fuse box under the hood. Theres typically a 30 amp fuse protecting the power feed to the brake controller. Your owners manual should indicate the exact fuse location. Ill also link you to a help article that will help you through the troubleshooting process.

Harness arrived quickly. I installed the harness with my existing brake controller in about 10 minutes. The installation video on the website was very helpful. The dealer wanted 500$ for a factory install. I did mine for 30$. 513879

After browsing the web I called etrailer customer service,explained what I would be towing and type of vehicle I have. Within a few minutes they had the order submitted. I received it before expected date and installed it in about 15 minutes. Anyone can do this. They sent me info links in case I needed it, No need, just to easy and the price was way below all others. I'm already looking at ordering other products they carry. Exellent company to work with. 448439

Pugged right into the harness and works great. 433075
Received the trailer controller and wiring harness yesterday afternoon and both installed in a few minutes. 431858
Absolutely amazing service cannot wait to buy something else! 428859
Plugged directly into my 2014 (Dodge) RAM Tradesman wiring and was easy to set up! I was not happy about having to add the 30235-P Brake Control Converter and 7-Way Adapter Kit required due to California law but did so. This greatly increased the work required, and expense, to complete the install. After having completing it however, the P3 worked great and was easy to set up. I never laid hands on the "manual" brake control lever so, the extra 7-way adapter proved to be superfluous. 428776
The P3 brake controller still works great but I recently pulled a smaller trailer that was not equipped with brakes and found that the 30235-P converter required by California would not allow the brake/turn indicator4-way lights to work. Why? It seems that it was because the unit did not see a brake system on the trailer! I had to crawl back underneath the truck and remove the 30235-P from the circuit and voila now the lights work! I didnt like that but no matter as Im leaving California anyway and will not use it any more.
Fast shipping and worked perfectly. After a year no problems at all. 413540
This could not have been easier to install, and the etrailer videos made it a pleasure. It worked exactly as described! Wish all companies out there were as helpful as trailer. Im a customer for life!!!! 401541
Easy install, fits and works as promised. Hardest part of the whole job was wire tying the wires under the dash. 396417
