Bulky brake controllers take up knee room and never look quite right. The Tow-Pro Liberty hides the main unit behind the dash, leaving only a small knob on display—just 1-7/8" long and 9/16" wide. The clean setup blends in like a factory switch and keeps everything out of the way. That single knob handles brake power adjustment, manual override, and LED status signals so you can fine-tune braking without cluttering your interior.
With proportional braking, your trailer reacts exactly how you brake—no push or jerk, just steady deceleration. An internal 3-axis accelerometer measures motion and matches braking force for trailers with up to 2 axles (4 brake assemblies). Whether your setup uses electric or electric-over-hydraulic brakes, it keeps everything balanced and smooth. The result is safer towing and less wear on tires and pads.
Hardwiring a brake controller can be a hassle, but here it’s plug-and-play. The included custom harness connects directly to the controller and vehicle port—no splicing needed. A universal mounting panel is also included for a clean finish. The main unit secures anywhere within reach of the 3' cable using screws, tape, or zip ties, making installation quick and tidy.
Getting set up is straightforward—just drive normally while braking about twenty times and the Tow-Pro Liberty learns its orientation automatically. You don’t even need a trailer connected for calibration. LED lights guide you through setup until it shows solid blue for ready status. After that, it stays calibrated on its own, quietly adjusting whenever needed without extra steps.
The Liberty isn’t just compact—it’s engineered for safety inside the cab. It meets or exceeds UNECE R21 and FMVSS 201 standards for crash safety and durability. With an output current rating of 18 amps continuous and operating range of 9–16 volts DC, it’s built to handle demanding towing conditions with consistent performance every trip.

Easy to install and fit very well behind dash. My truck is a Toyota Tacoma. The brake controller came with 3 different dash knockout panels so that the control knob can be mounted in multiple locations per your preferences. This makes it look like a factory option.
Great service from JamieB. JamieB answered all questions prior to placing the order. I’ll install this once it’s closer to spring.
Every thing fit as advertised would rec ommend
easy to install works great and best of all with the different switch plates you get it looks factory.
It was just as easy to install as the video etrailer has on their webiste. All parts snapped into place and works as advertised.
I bought the Redarc tow pro Liberty for a 2021 Toyota. Only slight issue i did have was I the controller head module was a 1/16” too wide to fit into the factory pop out on the dash. Fortunately i used a Drexel to widen the inside tabs and it clipped in nicely. Looks just like it came with this unit from Toyota factory.
Highly recommmend.
The Redarc tow-pro liberty brake controller works perfectly. It was a good investment.
Great service and shipping

Still working great. Looks stock in the truck. Happy with my purchase
lots of research; etrailer's excellent videos led me to this unit for my 2017toyota tacoma. They left a part out (the cable from the dash controller to the brake control unit) & immediately rushed one out to me. arrived a day before scheduled. installation was a breeze, again due to excellent videos. Can't wait to tow a trailer to see if it lives up to it's billing!
Nice looking kit, hopping to get installed this weekend. The installation video is very helpful.

Please let us know how the install goes!!
Installed myself, pulled the trailer today and it works great! The lady that helped me was a 10 top to bottom. Very knowledgeable and a pleasure to speak with. You folks better hang on to her!
This is a very reliable brake controller. We have been very happy with its performance and the way it is installed to fit right into the dash. We would highly recommend this product.
Appears to function as designed. Took road trip I can hardly feel the weight (1300 lbs) of our TearDrop behind us now. Before the install I could feel the added weight when braking. There is a noticeable difference after the install and gain adjustment. Would recommend. Viewed video on install then replicated exactly.
2017 Tacoma plug and play. Installation was more difficult than the video but I got it done. The video shows installation of the controller under the dash with an L bracket which is not included. I had to fabricate my own which took some time but made for a clean look. The control knob would not fit through the blank space on the lower left dash so I had to file it out to make it fit. Once completed it works great. I would recommend.
This product is perfect. It is totally plug and play for the Gen 3 Tundra SR model. Right behind the kick plate under the steering wheel.
Definitely plug and play! So easy. Completed job in 1 hour

Almost missed seeing where the knob was, you made it look very OEM, David :)
Works like a dream on my Tacoma pick up towing my 17 ft NoBo travel trailer.
Great videos for diy installation
Relatively easy to install with the custom harness. Seems to work good.
Easy install, after a few practice runs pulling a trailer the system works great on the fly.
This was an easy install. I like that it all is plug and play. The control know looks very clean and like it came from the factory.
This brake controller was an easy install with mounting bracket,and wiring harness fit my 2018 Tacoma , really helps when pulling my 16 foot camper, highly recommend
Product arrived. Installation went OK as per YouTube. The Toyota factory harness end was pretty well hidden behind a large bunch of wires.
I was able to attach the unit securely at the recommended location with a small nut, washer, and bolt, and a zip tie at the top without the bracket that didn't come with the kit.
I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but expect it to operate as intended.
The kit had everything that was needed to install the unit. The You Tube Video was quite helpful. I did have to shave a little bit of plastic inside the bore of the mounting bezel to mount the knob. But that was a quick fix. The system worked well towing my camper on steep mountain grades, and on the highway. I am very satisfied with this unit.
I really appreciate etrailer selling this brake controller package, including harness for my 2023 Tacoma, and 3 different dash inserts for the controller knob. The controller was easy to install and works great. So clean and sleek looking with nothing to hit with my knees.
The installation was easy like 30-45 minutes from start to finish. The controller is working as expected, the unit itself needs to calibrate so you need to have a trailer connected and drive for a little bit. But as you drive is gonna calibre as how you brake. I really like the look of the knob so slim and integrated with the control switches. I have a 2021 Toyota Tacoma.
