Install your electric 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 harness beneath your 's dash.
Features:
This adapter plugs into the 4-pin connector on your vehicle's built-in brake control wiring harness. The harness is located underneath the dash, to the left of the steering column, taped to another harness near the emergency brake pedal.
To install your electric brake controller you need to connect the wiring of the controller to your vehicle. Certain manufacturers offer pre-wired options, typically known as tow packages, wherein these wires are run for you from the dash to the trailer connector on the back of your vehicle. Often, a brake controller wiring harness is included with your tow package. This harness plugs into a port beneath your dash and connects to the four wires of the brake controller. If, however, you have a brake controller with a plug in place of the four loose wires, you can use the Tekonsha adapter.
This adapter requires no hardwiring. It is designed to plug directly into your electric brake controller for the simplest installation possible. Because there are no wires to connect, installation is not permanent. You can unplug and remove your brake controller at any time and securely stow it away.

Today we're going to review part number 3070-P. This is the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for the Draw-Tite and the Tekonsha electric brake controllers. Now this is a custom fit part number. It is designed to fit the 2006 to 2014 Honda Ridgeline with the factory tow package and the 2009 tecurrent 00:00:21 Honda Pilot with the factory tow package. Now this wiring adapter will help ease the installation of your electric brake controller. The one end with the gray connector is a custom connector end which will plug into the built in factor brake controller port that's usually beneath the dash of your vehicle. The other end, the smaller black flat design end, will plug into the back of your electric brake controller.
Now this adapter is compatible with the time-delayed brake controllers by Draw-Tite and also the proportional brake controllers by Tekonsha like the Prodigy, Prodigy P2, Prodigy P3, the Primus IQ and the Voyager. Basically when you go to install this, I've got a sample here of a Tekonsha P3 brake controller. We do sell that separately on our website, part number 90195. If you look at the back you can see where the plug would go in so you just take your plug, push it and it snaps into place, locks into place. Then you just go to your other end where the custom connector is and they you'll just find the location of your factory controller brake port, usually under the dash. Match up the connector, plug it right in and you'd be ready to go.
When you need to remove your brake controller all you need to do is pull up on the tab and it'll release it from the controller. That should do it for the review on part number 3070-P, the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for the Draw-Tite and Tekonsha electric brake controllers. .

Install your electric 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 harness beneath your vehicle's dash.Just what the doctor ordered for the customers Honda Ridgeline. Unbilivably, though the truck was completely wired from under the dash from the factory since it was purchased new with the trailer package, the dealership was oblivious to the fact that a brake controller was needed and were dumbfounded on where to get one, or where the connector was located in order to install it. Found the controler on etrailer.com and the connector location on utube. 228914
Just bought a Prodigy 3 and on my first trip with our light weight [email protected] clamshell with electric brakes pulled with a 2016 Honda Pilot...very satisfied. I installed a factory hitch and harness and the cable etrailor provided snapped right in. The trailer is under 2,000 lbs so I opted to bet the boost to zero. So far so good. The only issue is it seems to apply the brakes more firmly when going over rough pavement, otherwise the braking action is very smooth. I didn't want to mount the controller bracket permanently so I bent an angle plate into a U shape and pop riveted it so it would hang in the lower trim panel. 407957
Perfect interface between the controller and the factory wiring. I'd have given it 5 stars if it were a wee bit longer - say 8 more inches. On my 2012 Pilot, I mounted the controller in the bin right below the radio because it just seemed in the way of my legs in the more normal position above the accelerator on the dash. The cable wasn't quite long enough for that and I ended up fabbing my own and put this one in the box for the next time. 434856
Just bought the Tekonsha Primus IQ and installed it. Haven't used it yet, as I pick up my first travel trailer next week. Product is solid, packaged with ample, clear instructions, wiring and mounting hardware. Lower dash on my Honda Ridgeline slopes steeply so I fashioned an L-bracket from 14 ga. steel bar and secured to side of center stack (see photo). Nice and level. Wiring to my harness was a bear, just because of where my connector was buried; needed the YouTube videos. Price was much lower from etrailer than any RV dealer around here. Arrived in less than a week. Think I made a smart choice. If it works as advertised it will get a fifth star. 375303
Hello, as requested I have attached some pics of the brake controller after installation on my 2017 Honda Ridgeline. I have a lease vehicle so I did not want to drill any holes in the vehicle to mount or run wires. So what I did was install the mount bracket upside down and place a strong commercial velcro patch to the brake controller mount and to the tray area that it is sitting on. Then I slipped the wire harness between the crack in the IP and the lower console and tucked it up behind the dash so it could not be seen. The velcro holds the brake controller quite secure. This way I can remove the controller and reuse in my next vehicle without leaving any permanent marks or holes to this one. Anyway , just thought I would share… As far as the controller. I am very happy with its operation and functions. 523633
We have a Honda Ridgeline and this part plugged into the factory plug that was under the dash by the emergency brake petal switch. It was difficult to get to, but success was achieved. This was needed for our camper trailer. This made it easy, no hard wiring, just ordered the part for the Ridgeline and then plug and go. The brake controller plugged into the other end and now I am a happy camper. It worked, I blew a fuse while installing, must have touched something? No problem though, replaced it and was all was good. 202033
jim a - 06/08/2016I gave this a 4 star just because I haven't been able to hook up the trailer yet. The Primus IQ brake controller light is on so I'm assuming it will be fine. The harness arrived in good time. I was able to hook it up in my 2017 Honda Ridgeline in about 20 minutes. The longest part was finding the connection! It was above and left of the parking brake. A headlamp really helped. It's very tight in there so I could use only one hand and did a lot of it by feel. In the picture you need to follow the red wire to the connection. The brake controller I mounted on the plastic in front of my right knee. 321040
Holo - 11/30/2017Honda Ridgeline 2017. Exactly the right length to allow mounting the controller in the dash compartment and run the cable along the channel between the dash and the instrument trim panel. The etrailer installation video for a ridgeline was indispensable. NOTE: The Honda connector has a little locking tab that has to be pressed as you slide the cable connector into it. It required some manual dexterity and a lot of persistence, since you have to do it one handed. But it can be done. 803247
Perfect fit, easy installation on my 2018 Honda Pilot. Well done etrailer (you recommended this when I bought the Prodigy P3) 797403
Bought this cable and Tekonsha P-3 brake controller for a 2017 Honda Ridgeline AWD, to use when I pulled our travel trailer. I installed both items myself (with some help form the internet) and they both fit and worked great. Install and set up was easy. After I got used to the controller being there, I almost forgot it was there. Goes off automatically, and re-engages when the trailer gets plugged in. Never had any issues while pulling the trailer. 796199
Perfect fit. Made installation a snap. 795629
The harness fit and functioned perfectly and I love the P3 controller. Heck, the only problem I had was finding the connector Honda had taped and stuffed way up under the dash. Successful installation though. Thank you. 792855
Great product with easy to follow instructions for installation. 787195
The adapter fit my Honda Pilot, '12' perfectly. The controller was up and running in no time. 771821
Well made, super east to connect to Honda Ridgeline (accept getting to Ridgeline factory plug. 771741
A great unit that was easy to install, looks good and works perfectly. Easy to adjust and use. Help stop our trailer without any problems. The videos on etrailer were also very helpful. 766852
Fortunately I own a 2017 Honda Ridgeline and found the etrailer video install and it was on my truck in a location I wanted the controller mounted. Do not attempt this install without this harness. This simplified the job considerably due to the location of the trailer connection wire bundle which is tucked way up under the dash left if the parking break pedal. The length is perfect. 762568
I ordered trailer brake controller and connector wire at 4:30 PM and it was on my doorstep at 2:30 PM the next day I I am amazed how fast they got it to me dealt with Justin. He was very Knowledgeable and polite . I will definitely be dealing with them for any of my future needs 761977
Product received quickly. I haven't installed it yet so I can not review the quality yet. I plan on purchasing an RV soon which I do not yet have. That is how I will be using it in the future. 746624
This patch cable made connections a snap and I’m glad I purchased it. That said, threading the cable was difficult. I have a 2017 Honda Ridgeline and attempted installation as shown in the deceptively easy online video. Sliding the cable through the hole I cut, it snagged under the dash and I had to remove all panels up to the console to free it. Good product but be prepared for a possible bumpy ride. 739392
Easy to install. Worked well. Great price. Quick delivery 738055
Spot on harness for 2019 Ridgeline. Hardest part was finding the factory connector, which is hidden up under the dash, left side by the e-brake 737178
This controller works great! Used it pulling a 19' camper several times last summer with no issues. Easy to install and mounted perfect. 737446
The part was as advertised, the service was very good (as usual), but the installation was a PITA thanks to the crazy-difficult access to the plug under the dash. I guess Honda just doesn’t like making things easy. 735532
Just what the doctor ordered. Ideally fit, would deal with you again, thanks 726753
