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:
Specs:
Note: The main unit must be mounted horizontally level and parallel to the direction of travel within 20 degrees.
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 vehicle, 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.
The Voyager comes in 2 pieces: the main unit and the control knob.
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 vehicle-specific wiring harness that plugs right into the factory port on your vehicle. That means no hardwiring!
You will also need a circuit breaker kit to complete your installation:
Note: If you don't already have a 7-way plug at the back of your vehicle, take a look at our exclusive 7- and 4-way brake-control installation kit (ETBC7 - sold separately).
Proportional braking means that your trailer brakes mimic your tow vehicle's brakes. If you slam on the brakes in your vehicle, 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 vehicle's braking. This saves wear and tear on the tires and the brakes on both your vehicle and trailer.
The Voyager iD uses an internal inertia sensor to sense how your vehicle is braking so it can send the right amount of braking power to your trailer. It measures the inertia of your tow vehicle 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.

Today, we're going to take a look at the Tekonsha custom wiring adapter for the trailer brake controllers on the Jeep vehicles.Now this is a custom fit part. It will fit the 2018 Jeep JL Wrangler and JL Wrangler Unlimited, the 2019 and newer Jeep Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited and the 2020 Jeep Gladiator vehicles. And on a custom fit part like this I always like to recommend for you to go to our website, use the fit guide, put in your year and model vehicle and it'll show you if this'll work for your application.Now this plug in wiring adapter allows for a quick simple installation of your electric trailer brake controller to your vehicle. There is no cutting or splicing required. All you have to do is take this custom four pin connector end here, this will plug in to the built in four pin connector that's on your vehicle. And that four pin connector on the vehicle, it's in the vehicle's built in brake control wiring harness.
And that harness is usually located underneath the dash to the left of the steering column, and it's usually taped to another harness near the emergency brake pedal. The other end here will plug in to the back of the electric brake controller itself.Now it does come with a nice set of detailed instructions that'll describe how to hook it up and where that connector is. Now this adapter is compatible with time-delayed and proportional brake controllers from TrailerMate, Draw-Tite and Tekonsha. But the brake controller must have the built in plug for this adapter to connect. It will not work with the brake controllers that just have the pigtail wires coming out the back.
This is about 28 inches long.One note is to illuminate your vehicle trailer brake lights when you reactivate the manual override on your brake controller, which is required for use in the State of California. You can use this adapter in conjunction with the Tekonsha brake controller converter and seven way adapter, part number 30235-P, which we do sell separately on our website.But that should do it for the review on the Tekonsha custom wiring adapter for the trailer brake controllers on the Jeep vehicles.
Easy install simple setup
Everything worked as it should! Very happy with the look as well
Works good
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.
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 chose this Tekonsha Voyager ID for installation in my Audi SQ7 ecause Tekonsha has a great reputation for brake controllers when used with Airstreams. The brakes are easy to dial in and once you get it, the control at both high and low speed is perfect. A Redarc controller I used on a previous tow vehicle struggled to find a good balance. Tekonsha has this nailed. I love that I don’t have to mount a box beneath the dash and that the control is easy to reach, not ever in my way and easy to adjust. Perfect!
Had to file the bracket down to get it to slide in to the unit. Was able to get the control knob to fit into the dash in the removable card holder. 2022 Chevy, Colorado Z 71.
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
Fitted to our 2020 Highlander XSE V6. Install is straight forward, but you'll need to run your cold-side brake wire to a relay. The module will back-feed 12V into your brake light circuit which will trip all of your cars sensors (collision warning, parking, lane keep assist, radar cruise, etc.). The easiest place to tap the cold-side wire is from the trailer controller box located behind the 3rd row cup-holders (you may need to take the whole panel off to access). Cold side brake wire is a gray/lavender (beige) wire between the green and pink wires (pin 8). It's aluminum... so you can't solder to it.
The length of the cable to the switch/encoder should be longer or, have a connector so an extension cable could be used.
When I finally found a place to mount the controller within reach of the knob, I discovered that the foam mounting pad only had adhesive on one side. So that was useless. Sometime during the installation, I lost the nut that holds the encoder on the dash. I was disappointed when I called etrailer and they told me they don’t sell individual parts. They gave me the manufacturer’s phone number where I waited on hold for an hour before I hung up.
The Jeep dealer recommended I contact etrailer and they were right. Everything worked great, the installation was simple and a much better solution than available from the factory.
Was easy(ish) to install in me 2015 Jeep Wrangle Unlimited. Placed the main unit behind the glove compartment using the supplied bracket and the dash knob down near the passenger footwell. There isn't enough length of wire to get the knob to the driver's side in this configuration, but putting the main unit on that side while remaining hidden is a major pain, especially with the upgraded sound system. Used it a few times already, and the adjustability is excellent, it goes from almost imperceptible to locking up the brakes at maximum pretty quickly on the same road. It will serve you well no matter what trailer you are using.
The Tekonsha #3073-P worked as advertised, plugged it in my Jeep Gladiator then my brake controller! Seems to be a well made wiring adapter. This will help with the electric braking on my trailer.
I have not installed the adapter yet. However it is what I was looking for to install my Tekonsha brake controller into my 2024 Jeep Gladiator.
Easy to install
Clean install for my old 97 Silverado
Works great and does take up a lot of room
