Get a brake controller in your truck that looks like it's supposed to be there. This sleek knob blends right into your dash and makes your settings simple and convenient to adjust.


Features:

  • Proportional braking - Smooth, safe, and good for your brakes long-term
  • Sleek little knob blends into your dash - The main unit mounts of sight beneath the dashboard
  • Simple controls - Use the knob to adjust the settings, activate manual override, and troubleshoot
  • Reverse battery protection - Keeps your electrical systems safe
  • Universal wiring harness - Hardwires to your Honda Pilot and plugs into the main unit
    • Plug-and-play, Honda Pilot-specific harness may be available (sold separately)


Specs:

  • For trailers with up to 3 axles (6 brake assemblies)
    • Compatible with electric trailer brakes only
  • Works with 12-volt Honda Pilot electrical systems
  • Main unit dimensions: 2-1/2" long x 2-1/2" wide x 1-1/4" tall
  • Limited lifetime warranty


Note: The main unit must be mounted horizontally level and parallel to the direction of travel within 20 degrees.


How to Use Tekonsha Voyager iD

Power output: To get more power output - the maximum amount of power that will be applied to your trailer's brakes - rotate the knob clockwise. To decrease the power output, rotate it counterclockwise.


Manual override: To engage manual override, simply press the knob. This will activate the trailer's brakes and brake lights independent of your tow Honda Pilot, great for stopping sway or controlling your trailer's momentum in an emergency. The Voyager iD will reach the maximum set power in half a second.


How to Install Tekonsha Voyager iD

The Voyager comes in 2 pieces: the main unit and the control knob.


Tekonsha Voyager iD Installed

The control knob can be installed in any convenient spot that's easy for you to see and access. This can be a blank switch panel, an open spot on your center console, or wherever there's space on your dashboard. Before you do any drilling, be sure there's enough clearance behind the dash for the entire knob to install!


Once you've decided where you want to put the control knob, you'll need to find a good place to install the main unit. It needs to be horizontally level and parallel to the direction of travel within 20 degrees. A mounting kit with hardware is included.


This kit comes with a universal wiring harness you can hardwire to your Honda Pilot then plug into the main unit. For a plug-and-play installation, a Honda Pilot-specific wiring harness (sold separately) is available for most newer trucks and SUVs.


You will also need a circuit breaker kit to complete your installation:

  • 20-Amp circuit breaker (9506P - sold separately) for 1 or 2 axles
  • 30-Amp circuit breaker (38630 - sold separately) for 3 axles

Note: If you don't already have a 7-way plug at the back of your Honda Pilot, take a look at our exclusive 7- and 4-way brake-control installation kit (ETBC7 - sold separately).

What is Proportional Braking?

What is proportional Braking

Proportional braking means that your trailer brakes mimic your tow Honda Pilot's brakes. If you slam on the brakes in your Honda Pilot, your trailer brakes will activate with the same intensity; if you brake lightly, your trailer brakes lightly too. The trailer's braking is in proportion to your Honda Pilot's braking. This saves wear and tear on the tires and the brakes on both your Honda Pilot and trailer.


The Voyager iD uses an internal inertia sensor to sense how your Honda Pilot is braking so it can send the right amount of braking power to your trailer. It measures the inertia of your tow Honda Pilot and activates the trailer's brakes to slow at the same rate. The result is uniform braking across your towing setup. No push-pull action - just smooth, proportional braking every time.

Everything worked as it should! Very happy with the look as well

The install was pretty simple. It took some time to modify the knock out plug to conceal the adjustment knob but after a bit of work it fit nicely and looks like it’s supposed to be there. I missed a photo of the final mont of the control unit but I was able to install the supplied clip for the module just above the airbag. There is a clip that holds the wire for the computer input so I removed it for extra space and secured the wire with a zip tie.



by:

Easy install. I used the cable harness that came with my 22 Silverado. Hardest part was just locating a place on the dash for the knob and access from behind for the 2 inches or so length of the switch assembly. Small and looks good on the dash.

I wanted it to look like it belonged. Took a bit of fabrication but I think it turned out pretty good. 2010 Cadillac Escalade EXT

  • Parts Needed to Install a Brake Controller on a 1998 Winnebago Minni Winnie
    Hey Ed, thanks for reaching out! It sounds like your 1998 Minni Winnie doesn't have any trailer wiring at all so you'll need the following: - T-One Wiring # 118344 - Universal Wiring Upgrade # ETBC7 - Tekonsha Voyager iD Brake Controller # TK26BR We don't really have any installation videos on an RV like that, but I've attached a video of the ETBC7 kit that should help with the installation. Is there anything else you're needing to install along with this stuff?

  • Availability of Custom Wiring Harness for Voyager iD Installation on 2017 Cadillac Escalade
    Hey Josh! The Tekonsha Voyager iD Brake Controller # TK26BR comes with a universal wiring harness. Since you have the factory tow port you can use the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3016 for a plug and play installation. I see you also looked at the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty # RED26CR. If you're trying to decide between the two I would get the Liberty for sure. This is hands down my favorite brake controller and the design the iD is based on. The Liberty has been around a lot longer and...

  • 2020 Lexus RX 350 Brake Controller Recommendation
    Hey Jay, thanks for reaching out! I have 2 different brake controller recommendations for your 2020 Lexus RX 350, and it all depends on what style of controller you'd like. The brake controller I really like for your RX 350 is the Curt Echo In-Line Bluetooth Brake Controller # C79DR because it installs in-line with the 7-Way at the back of your vehicle and you make adjustments via the app on your phone. Once the settings are in place, the controller remembers the settings and applies...

  • Parts Needed to Install Hitch and Brake Controller in 2016 Toyota Highlander
    Hey Edgar, lets start with a hitch for your 16 Highlander. For that the Curt part # C13394 would be your best option. Its got great towing capacities and also is mostly hidden since only the hitch opening hangs below the rear bumper. Then for the wiring and brake controller the Tekonsha Voyager ID part # TK26BR would be a really great option that only puts a small knob on your dash. To wire it in you'd need to first start with a 4-way like the part # 118449 which is a confirmed fit and...
