Made it easy to install

Product great, but that was expected. The service and timeliness of the transaction and shipping was second to none. Very Impressed with etrailer.com



by:

This kit and the accompanying video were a great fit to get a brake controller on my Jeep. Everything worked as planned. The video even told me I would need a little extra wire and a nut, that I went ahead and got even though I didn't actually end up needing it. Thanks etrailer for the excellent products and service.



by:

etrailer made it easy to buy and install a brake controller in my pickup. Everything necessary for installation arrived quickly in one box, was compatible with factory wiring and worked...the first time. Way to go etrailer!

I am very happy with the controller and was very easy to install. Once I figured out where to mount it the rest was a breeze. Glad I ordered the 2 hex flange nuts.

This is such an amazing nut! The threads were spot on, the chrome finish really completed the look of the engine bay. This is a very good nut, I definitely recommend it.

Works great and "as advertised". Only problem was I chose the "free shipping" option as a promotion when I purchased it and it took 10 days to get to me. I found that unacceptable. It shouldn't take that long to ship a product weighing in at 1.5 lbs. and the size of a fist from the midwest to Cali. I needed it in 7 days so had to go out and find the exact same one at a local store (for $50 more), then return the etrailer one to the store for a refund when it finally came. I would have saved money and time by just paying the few bucks to get 3-5 day shipping. Nowhere on the free shipping promotion did it say how long it would take.



by:

Product was just as I expected. Order management was easy. Great experience.



by:

Just what I needed. Just as advertised.



by:

Great product still working great.



by:

Best d**n nuts this side of the Mississ ippi.



by:

I had a hard time finding a flange but that would fit the post of my truck for my break controller. This fit perfectly.



by:

No problems..



by:

Nut does its job



by:

Worked great



by:

Another easy transaction and speedy delivery. My Project is complete. Thanks again.

    It does look like you might have made some wiring errors during the installation. I have also linked a video that will help. On the 2009 GMC Sierra 1500 when installing a brake controller make the following connections to the brake controller: Truck red wire to controller black wire (12 volt power to brake controller) Truck dark blue to controller blue wire (output to trailer brakes) Truck light blue (or orange if light blue doesn't work) to controller red wire (input from brake switch) Truck...

  • Recommended Trailer Brake Controller For a 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 With Factory 7-Way
    I recommend installing the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED52VR on your 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. This controller is proportional and takes up much less room than the Dexter Predator DX2 Trailer Brake Controller # 58-8 you found. This will make is easier to reach and give you a much cleaner look with the brake controller. I have linked an installation video below for the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195 that will accurately walk you through all the...

    I recommend installing a Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195 on your 2011 Chevrolet Sivlerado 2500HD. This proportional brake controller also has a built in diagnostic feature to help you resolve issues that might occur in your brake system. As you have an integrated brake controller your installation instructions will be different. I have linked an article below that will cover this installation as well for your to reference.

  • How Many Wires Under Hood Need Attached On 2008 Chevy Silverado for Brake Controller
    The Curt TriFlex Trailer Brake Controller part # C24VV is an excellent option for a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado when used with the Universal Wiring Adapter for Curt Trailer Brake Controllers part # C51515. The wires under the dash are already ran and labeled for you. Once the wires under the dash are hooked up, all you will need to do is make one connection under the hood in the engine bay. This connection is a red wire to the right of the fuse box which needs to be attached to the M6 stud...

  • Help With Installing a Trailer Brake Controller On a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 3500
    While we do not have an installation video I have linked a great help article we have for this near the bottom of the page. The article includes pictures of the wiring and goes into further detail about the installation on your 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 3500. On top of the brake controller you will need a M6 # 185916 and M8 # 185917 flange nut. For brake controllers our best is the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195. This has an easy to read LCD screen which you can customize unlike other controllers....

  • How to Wire a 2010 GMC Yukon XL for a Brake Controller
    Yes, you will need to connect two wires under the hood of your 2011 GMC Yukon XL to wire a brake controller to your vehicles brake controller circuitry. To attach those wires to your vehicle you will need a Zinc Plated Hex Flange Nut - M6, part # 185916, and a Zinc Plated Hex Flange Nut, part # 185917. I attached an FAQ article on how this is done below for you to check out, as well as the video that you watched of the brake controller being installed on a 2011 Chevy Silverado that you...

  • Instructions To Bypass Integrated Brake Controller In 2011 Chevy Silverado With Red Arc Tow-Pro
    Under the dash of your 2011 Chevy Silverado to the left of the steering column is a bundle of bluntly cut wires. These wires will connect to the main unit of the Redarc part # RED44FR just like a traditional style brake controller. The wire colors are Red/Black wire, White wire, Light Blue/White wire and Dark Blue wire, possibly Orange wire. You can disregard the dark blue and orange wires since they are not needed for a brake controller installation. Connect the brake control to these...

  • What Size Nuts Are Needed to Connect Wires Under Hood for Brake Controller Installation on GMC Yukon
    As it seems you already know, when installing a trailer brake controller on your 2007 GMC Yukon you will need to locate the two wires under the hood that need to be connected to fully activate the vehicle's tow package. One is the power wire to the brake control and the other is the battery charge line to the 7-Way connector. You will need to attach both of the wires to the threaded studs under the Gray handle at the front of the fuse box. To do this you will need one M6 x 1.0 nut like...

  • Recommendation for Activation of Electric Over Hydraulic Trailer Brake with GM OEM Brake Controller
    I checked out your Tow Brake HD 3000 unit online and found that it is a very good braking system, but that the system is not recommended for use with your GM integrated brake controller, as you have found. I then spoke with Tow Brake and he said that they have used the inline magnet that you are using, but that he feels that your best option is to go with a brake controller that is compatible with an electric over hydraulic system like you have. The Tekonsha P3, # 90195, would be an excellent...

  • Power Distribution Stud Nut Sizes for Installing a Brake Controller on a 2007 Chevy Silverado
    GM does not supply the attaching nuts required to secure the wires to the studs. These can be obtained locally. You will need (1) M6 x 1.0 nut, # 185916 and (1) M8 x 1.25 nut, # 185917. I have attached an FAQ for you that may also help.

  • No Power to the Brake Controller Wires Under the Dash on 2010 Chevrolet Silverado
    General Motors quit offering the plug-in type connectors on 2007 and newer full size trucks and SUVs with a factory tow package. These models have four (possibly five) blunt cut wires under the left side of the instrument panel to the left of the steering column. The wires can be identified by a white label and the color of the wires. The wire colors are (1) Red/Black wire, (1) White wire, (1) Light Blue/White wire and (1) Dark Blue wire and possibly (1) Orange wire. There are two wires...

    The brake controller power wire on a 2013 GMC Sierra is located directly to the right of the power distribution box, taped to a wire harness between the driver-side front fender and the power distribution box. Once this is found, you will need to cut it free from the harness and then attach this to the M6 stud on the power distribution box with part # 185916. I have attached a photo for you as well which explains/shows this. The Hopkins Agility Trailer Brake Controller part # HM47295 that...

  • Why Isn't Interior Lights of Trailer Working Towed with 2015 Chevy Silverado
    The 12 volt accessory circuit of the 7-way on your 2015 Chevy Silverado is what powers the interior lights of the trailer. It's not always activated from the factory but to do so there are just a couple connections under the hood of the truck that need to be made. I attached a help article that covers exactly what connections need to be made. You'll need the nuts part # 185916 and # 185917.

    For your 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 there is not a pigtail adapter as the wiring does not have a connector.

I have linked a video showing where the wiring is and how to install a Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195 below.

  • Fuse Box Wiring Connections to Activate Brake Controller Installed in 2010 Chevy Silverado
    On some vehicles GM didn't complete a connection under the hood that is used to deliver power to the brake controller. On the front of the power distribution box on the inside of the driver's side fender, there are two studs that should be visible once the lid of the fuse box is removed. Just to the right of the fuse box, between the box and the fender is a red/black wire with a ring terminal on the end of it. This wire should be attached to the left hand stud.
