Installation of Tekonsha Brake Controller Adapter

This adapter plugs into the 5-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 cutting or splicing of wires to install. It is designed to plug directly into your electric brake controller for the simplest installation possible. Because there is no hardwiring, installation is not permanent. You can unplug and remove your brake controller at any time and securely stow it away.

Plugged directly into the connector provide by the tow package on my 2019 4-Runner. Every thing lit up like it suppose to on the trailer break controller.

I haven't used it though I did install it yesterday. It came on line the way it should have. Ask me again in another week or so after I get the chance to test drive.

This was long enough to route across from the emergency brake to the center console. Grounded white wire to a bolt under the dash with a 10mm nut. Easy

After 1 year of flawless use I am very pleased with this wiring harness for my 2016 Toyota 4Runner. The installation was super simple and easy; plug and play. I would definitely purchase again for another vehicle.

Plug and play! I've had the same brake controller on several vehicles...get the correct harnest for your vehicle and easy peezy! Advice: Plan on how you're going to route your wire harnest first before mounting brackets.

Added this to my 4Runner to pull my motorcycle trailer. Easy to install works as expected. Very happy with product and etrailer, they will get my future business.

Worked exactly as expected. The install took me about an hour total because I needed to remove some trim panels to attach the ground.

I used this product before on a 2018 4 runner now on my 2021 love it works easy. Was in a bind
To get trailer and needed trailer brake paid extra to get it day before I headed out and it did arrive and installed ! Thank you

2016 Toyota 4Runner

The wiring for the Tekonsha proportional brake control fit my 2016 4 Runner perfectly. Plus the videos that etrailer has showing where the plug in is under the dash made finding it a cinch.
Thank you so much etrailer- Anthony, one of their staff even sent me the links for the wiring and the brake controller videos so I wouldn't have to hunt for them. Amazing staff- very helpful. Thank you so much.

Thanks for asking. It means a lot that your company cares about products and service. Ive been very impressed with your company and the information that you provide. The brake controller works very well and is a very good product. Ive been very pleased with it. We went on a long trip from South Carolina to Montana. On the way we stopped by Mount Rushmore. Were going up a steep grade almost 10. Coming down it was nice that I could adjust the controller For more brake power. Thank you so much

I haven't installed anything from my order just yet so i can't comment on the products just yet. I'm sure that these, like the others I've purchased over the years will do the job as advertised. This isn't my first time dealing with etrailer, so I'm not at all concerned with the job before me. Very few companies I've dealt with are as capable and competent as etrailer. Their customer service is second to none. Every employee I've spoken with has been well versed in the products as well as their uses and their installation. I highly recommend. Love these folks.

I ordered this product from Etrailer ( 3041-P). It is made very well and the instructions for plugging it into my 4Runner were spot on. I needed to confirm of fit and availability and talked to there customer service Rep Christina. I was delivered to my house in just a day or two.

Purchased Brake Controller and Wiring adapter. It was just as easy (or even easier) an installation than described. Dealer wanted about $150 to "wire" my brake installer. I noticed this product on-line and read reviews and decided to see if it really was what it said. It took my son around 10-15 minutes to get it mounted and ground. When plugged into trailer, it worked!!
When contacting Customer Service, I was very impressed.

The Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller for 2018 Toyota TRD Off Road 4x4 4Runner
Easy to install
I pull 4800 pounds behind my 4Runner after a year no problems yet.
The price was right,
Easy to install.
Thank You

Worked like a charm. Installed easily in 2014 4Runner & 1997 Chevy 2500. No problems, no hiccups, no glitches pulling a 7x20 12k flatbed. etrailer.com videos, specifically installation videos are very valuable and one reason I keep coming back to etrailer.com. The folks where I bought the trailer said I made a great choice with this controller. I couldn't agree more.

Super easy and a direct plug-in to factory wiring.



by:

Just bought the cable that seamlessly integrates the Prodigy P2 brake controller to the factory wiring on my 2018 Toyota 4 Runner. A perfect fit that makes installation a breeze. Got quick delivery from etrailer.com.



by:

Plug and play just like it says. So easy that I installed this in a 2015 4Runner in the parking lot of our travel trailer dealer. Then used it to pull our R-pod home. Worked like it should. No complaints. Have always had great service from etrailer as well.
Thank you!



by:

Good unit, reliable. Display is hard to read and the form factor and mounting location results in a banged Knee from time to time. A longer wire harness would be good enabling a center console mount.

  • Troubleshooting Prodigy P3 that Doesnt Turn On
    Are you using the # 3041-P adapter? It's the correct one for your 2018 Toyota 4Runner. Test the connector under the 4Runner's dashboard with a circuit tester, like part #PTW2992, to test for power. If there's no power start by checking the fuses. If there's power at the plug reconnect the harness to the vehicle and test the pins on the other side of the harness. Check the pins at all the connectors and make sure none are bent. They're fairly thin so they get bent pretty easily. They...

  • 2016 Toyota 4runner Trailer Brake Controller and Install Harness Recommendation
    Your 2016 Toyota 4Runner has a factory 7-way harness to control the trailer lights currently. All you need is to install a brake controller and you will be able to control the lighting and the brakes. For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying...

  • Is 2016 Toyota 4Runner Pre Wired for a Brake Controller
    If it has the factory 7-way trailer connector, your 4Runner will indeed be pre-wired at the factory for a brake controller. The Tekonsha Primus, part # TK90160 you'd looked at is an excellent brake controller that would work very well for you. You'll also need the # 3041-P brake controller wiring adapter, which would plug into the factory connector as shown in the installation video I've linked for you.

    Hey Paul! Does your 2025 Toyota 4Runner have the factory tow package? If it does, there is a brake controller port you can use for plug and play installation. If you're using the Tekonsha POD # TK92UR you got before then you need the Tekonsha Custom Wiring Adapter # 3041-P. If you need a new brake controller I do recommend upgrading to a proportional like the P3 # 90195. If you don't have the factory tow package with the brake controller port you will need to install a 7-way and then splice...

  • Wiring Harness to Install Hopkins Impulse Brake Controller in a 2018 Toyota 4Runner w/Tow Package
    I did some checking and the 2018 Toyota 4Runner uses the same brake controller wiring harness as the previous 2 model years. That means you can use # HM47815 with your Impulse brake controller. But, I actually recommend a different approach because the factory ground on the Toyota tow packages where a brake controller plugs in has proven to be insufficient for many brake controllers. I propose using harness # 3041-P which has a separate ground wire to combat that issue. You would have...

  • Recommended Hub and Drum Assembly, Brakes, and Brake Controller for 2018 Cargo Craft 6 x 9 Trailer
    In order to find out which hub and drum assembly fits your 3,500 lb axle on your Cargo Craft trailer you will need to know which bearings are on your axle. If you have a serial number on the axle you can probably get this information from the manufacturer. If not, you will need to look for part numbers stamped in your existing bearings or take some measurements. I recommend using a digital caliper like the # PTW80157. Assuming you have the most common bearings on your 3,500 lb axle, and...

  • Prodigy P2 and P3 vs Curt Triflex Controller Comparison
    We have the best luck with the Prodigy P3 # 90195 and P2 part # 90885. There isn't a controller out there more reliable and better performing that these. The Curt Triflex part # C24VV isn't a bad controller but it's just not quite the same. One aspect is the mounting flexibility is much more limited for the Curt. The Prodigies allow for 360 degrees of mounting rotation as long as the controller faces the rear, but the Curt has a much smaller range. We find too that the Curt controllers...

    Since your 2016 Toyota 4Runner has a factory 7-way there is a brake controller connector port by the emergency brake pedal. If you check out the picture I attached you can see where the connector is located. The part # 3041-P is the connector that would plug right into it.

  • Is The Tekonsha 3040-P Wiring Adapter Supposed To Have A Ground Strap Like The 3041-P?
    The Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3040-P is supposed to have the additional ground strap for your 2019 Toyota Sequoia. This was something that was not always on the harness but was added some time ago as the factory wiring ground was insufficient. This will allow you to properly connect your Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Controller # 90195 to your Sequoia. While it will look similar to the Tekonsha # 3041-P they are not interchangeable as they terminals are different.

  • Solution for Trailer Brake Controller Causing ABS Error Message on 2015 Toyota 4Runner
    The issue you described when using a brake controller isn't too uncommon on certain late model Toyota vehicles like your 2015 4Runner. These particular vehicles are more sensitive to the controller's red wire backfeeding to the stop light switch, which is what triggers the ABS error message. The only way to prevent this is to use the a diode with the harness and the Pigtail Harness # 7865 that you mentioned offers a perfect solution as it features a diode on the red wire. The Plug-In...

    It's my understanding that your 2020 Toyota 4Runner should have come with a connector already installed up and behind the emergency brake pedal. If all you found was a bundle of wires and then a connector in your glove box then you should be able to either install that connector so that you can use an adapter, or you can possibly bypass the harness you found if the wiring under your dash is long enough. I can make some recommendations for both options but I will say that I don't know what...

    I can help you get a easy to use weight distribution for your 2016 Toyota 4Runner and Flagstaff Travel Trailer.

With a weight of 5,350lbs max this can be anywhere from 418-802lbs of tongue weight. I have linked a Help Article on how to determine your loaded tongue weight....
