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 beneath the dash of 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 be taking a look at the Tekonsha plug-in wiring adapter for electric brake controllers. This product fits certain years and models of Ram trucks. To make sure or to check if it's a fit for your vehicle, you can use the vehicle fit guide located at etrailer.com. This wiring adapter simply eases the installation of your electric brake controller. The custom connector end is going to plug in to the build in port beneath the dash of your vehicle. The other end plugs into the back of your electric brake controller. This is compatible with time delayed brake controllers, like the the Draw-Tite Activator one, Activator two, Activator three and Tekonsha PowerTrac.
It's also compatible with proportional brake controllers, the Tekonsha Prodigy, the Tekonsha P2, P3, Primus IQ and Voyager. The wiring's going to feature a nice protective mesh that goes over the wires to keep them bundled together, it's going to keep them from hanging out around your feet. The black and blue wires on the unit are going to be gauge 12, red and white are gauge 16. I need to mention that to illuminate your vehicle and trailer brake lights when you activate the manual override on your brake controller, you'll want to use in conjunction with the Tekonsha brake controller converter with seven way adapter, part number 30235-P. That is required for use in the state of California. It is sold separately and available at etrailer.com. I do want to mention real quick that these plugs are custom fit.
This one's going to fit the brake controllers I mentioned. It's going to push in the back of the controller and then it's got the locking tab. Then on this side, this is custom fit for your vehicle. It's going to push together, it's going to match up perfectly with the port on the vehicle and it's going to snap lock together for a nice tight, secure fit. That's going to do it for today's look at the Tekonsha plug-in wiring adapter for electric brake controllers..
Easy install simple setup
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.
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
Great product, it made installation of my brake controller much easier.
The ram wiring harness is a bit difficult to get to though. I dropped the panel covering the fuse box (it’s just two 7mm bolts.) and it made it alot easier to get to and unwrap.
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!
Accurate for my application
came with everything needed to install,liked the sleek one button control.
Installed in my 2020 Gladiator and used the 3024P adapter(you must switch the black and blue wires!) it works perfect. Yes i cut a hole in my new truck but it is out of the way and you can easily access it.
Shipping was timely product was excellent.
Great product clipped straight into factory wiring harness. Ram 1500 Classic Tradesmen 2019
I purchased a new 2017 Ram 1500 and was looking for a break controller. My son recommended the Tekonsha Prodigy 2 . I found it on etrailer.com at a better than expected price and ordered the controller and the wiring harness. I received the item in four days. It was a breeze to install. Truly plug -and-play ! Set up was a snap and I like not having to level the device every time , as with my previous controller !
I am very satisfied with my purchase and with etrailer.com !
Install was simple with provided factory match jumper. Total 10 mins to install on 2015 Ram 1500. Still need to configure settings otherwise purchase and install simple along with great price.
Just wanted to throw it out there for reference for any future searches. This was for installation on a 2020 RAM 1500 (DT) which did not have a factory tow package or brake controller installed. I reviewed the e-trailer installation video on a previous Gen RAM and it said the plugs would be right above the gas pedal. At first, I couldn’t find the OEM harness plugs; There weren't any plugs just hanging out in that area.
When I got my package yesterday, I decided to take another looksee.
This time I easily found it. Looking from under, I could see the two plugs snuggly taped together with black material, not electrical, tape. Looking up from my under dash position they were slightly to the left and up. If you have huge hands and forearms, it may take some positioning, and skin cuts, to get to. Luckily I don’t, but took a little finesse to get the tape off. Once I got that off, there was plenty of room to work and plug my adapter harness into.
The brake controller came with a mounting bracket and sheet screws to mount somewhere. Under our dash, there’s a metal dash screw right about the gas pedal that works perfect to mount the bracket. I put on a zip tie as well to make sure it was extra secure. Zip tied the extra slack of the OEM harness and adapter harness under the dash.
Very easy install.
Plug and play. Gotta love it! My 2017 Ram 1500 didnt come with a factory brake controller and I didnt want to spend a lung buying it and having it put in. I found a Primus iq second hand on the cheap and needed the wire harness to make it work. Installation was a breeze and it looks and works great. I saved big $$ and am very happy. Lori B made it happen for me. She was very nice and gave me her direct line when I needed to call back and had the wiring sent out asap. Very satisfied. Thanks Lori B!!
Easy to install and it works great.
2015 ram 3500 truck.took all of like 10 min. To install and that's just taking my time.the 4 pin plug for the truck is just above gas petal.plug in the adapter to the truck.route the wires how you wish to run them.mount the controller where you wish to mount it which i utilized the panel screw for mine rather than put a hole in my new truck.plug in to controler zip tie the wires and your done.I read forums where people make a big issue out of this.truth is it's nothing to it.plug and go.hope my pics are helpful one showing the 4 pin plug,the mount location, and wires zip tied up.I like the mount type for the primus iq. Wouldn't be no problem swap g it to a different truck.I have not used it towing yet to review that part.maybe I can later
Product was exactly what I needed. I sold my old truck with the wire still in it (different make) all I needed a new one for this truck. 5 min of searching and I knew I found the one. 2 day shipping and it arrived on my doorstep. After 10 min of pulling at wires and tape behind my dash I found the right ones. Plugged it in and wham it connected right away (only to tell me I had a broken wire on my trailer brakes, but that's another story).
Good product, fast shipping, A+
easy install took longer to get tools out than to put in definitely plug and play with wiring adapter
This is on a 2015 ram outdoors man install was about 10 min. very simple!!!!! truck pigtail is right above right foot covered in a foam tape next to what i think is the factory brake control harness. Thank You E-Trailer!!!!!!!
