Off-Road Mode

Redarc Tow Pro Elite User Controlled LED Signal

The off-road mode is a unique feature of the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite. In this mode, the brake controller will apply your trailer's brakes with a preset amount of power, independent of what your tow vehicle is doing. This is ideal for off-roading or challenging conditions. Set the power low if you're towing through sand or mud so that the trailer doesn't stop with too much force and act as an anchor. If navigating a steep descent, set the power to a higher level to ensure that the trailer doesn't push against the tow vehicle.


To activate the off-road mode, rotate the knob counterclockwise and apply your vehicle's brakes. Push down on the knob twice (2 times within 1 second) and release the brakes. The knob will turn green to let you know that the mode has been activated.

How to Use Redarc Tow-Pro Elite

Use the knob to set the braking output -- the maximum amount of power that will be applied to your trailer's brakes. To get more power output, rotate the knob clockwise toward 10. To decrease the power output, rotate it counterclockwise toward 0.


Redarc Tow Pro Elite Braking Output Red Light

When you apply the tow vehicle's brakes, the knob will change from blue to red to signal that the trailer brakes are being activated. The higher the braking power output, the deeper the red that you will see.


Manual Override

To engage manual override, simply press the control 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.


How to Calibrate Redarc Tow-Pro Elite

When you are calibrating the brake controller for the first time, the LED lights will signal your progress.


Redarc Tow Pro Elite Brake Controller Calibration

You'll start by braking 20 times or so to let the unit learn its orientation and the direction of travel. You don't need to have a trailer connected for it to calibrate; the only difference is that the knob won't illuminate at all. If your trailer is connected, the LED light will flash green/blue as it calibrates. When the display turns solid blue, initial calibration is complete.


Once done, the unit will remain calibrated. If recalibration is required, it will happen automatically and without LED indication.


How to Install Redarc Tow-Pro Elite

The Tow-Pro Elite has almost no mounting restrictions. It comes in 2 pieces: the main unit and the control knob. The main unit can be mounted out of sight and out of the way. You don't have to worry about dinging your knee on a bulky brake controller or interfering with your vehicle's airbags.


Redarc Tow Pro Elite Dash Mounted Remote 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. A universal mounting panel is included to ensure a clean, from-the-factory look. Custom-fit panels are available for certain vehicles as well. Before you do any drilling, be sure there's enough clearance behind the dash for the entire knob to install!


where to install REDARC Tow Pro Elite on 2023 Jeep Wrangler 4xe

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. Your only restriction is the 3' cable connecting the main unit and the control knob. Securely mount the box using screws, double-sided tape, or zip-ties (not included). A mounting kit (RE67FR - sold separately) is also available for the Tow-Pro Elite. Do not attach the module to wiring or cables that can shift as you drive!


Redarc Tow Pro Elite Adapter, Wiring Harness

The included adapter connects the main unit to a vehicle-specific Tekonsha wiring harness (sold separately) for an easy plug-and-play installation. There's no splicing or hardwiring. Plug one end of the adapter into the wiring harness and the other into the Tow-Pro Elite and you're done!


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). A 30-amp circuit breaker kit (331-CBK30-EB - sold separately) may also be required for installation.


For assistance in properly wiring the Tow-Pro Elite, please refer to the diagrams below:

What is Proportional Braking?

What is proportional Braking

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 Tow-Pro Elite uses an internal 3-axis accelerometer 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.

  • Parts Needed to Install Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Brake Controller on 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500
    It sounds like you have the factory tow package on your 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500. The # RED63RR is a good start since it comes with the Tekonsha Adapter # 331-TPH-017 for the Tow-Pro Elite. The only other thing you will need is the Tekonsha # 3064-P. One end of this wiring harness will connect to the adapter and the other will plug into your factory tow port under the dash. I have attached an installation video for your reference.

  • What Brake Controllers are Compatible With Tekonsha 7-Way Harness TK24FR on 2020 Kia Sedona?

  • Should LED be Solid Blue Right When Installing Redarc Tow-Pro Elite
    Since you haven't finished calibrating the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite # RED63RR yet it won't be solid blue right away. Once you calibrate it will be on all the time if you are in proportional mode. As for the best method there isn't one; you can with or without a trailer attached like you mentioned and it truly won't make any difference at all. It's easier without a trailer attached (because you aren't hooking up the trailer) so that's what most people do.
