Brake controllers are an essential part of a towing system with electric trailer brakes, and they offer a much-needed emergency braking feature. We offer high quality controllers from manufacturers such as Draw-Tite, Tekonsha, REDARC, Hidden Hitch and Hopkins. Featuring both time-delay and proportional models, we have the right controller for any application. Brake controller wiring adapters are available for many vehicles, allowing for simple plug-and-play installation. Hardwire kits are also available to make any installation hassle-free.
Find your custom fit brake controller wiring adapter for a plug-in application by selecting the year of your vehicle to the left. We offer custom fit plug in adapters for many of the most popular vehicles, including Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, GMC, Nissan, and Toyota.

Hey Lucas, It looks like both the Redarc #RED72CR and #RED68CR are going to include the same wire harness #RED99FR, but the #RED72CR is also going to include some mounting panels to make mounting the control knob into your dash easier so I'd go…

Hey John, thanks for reaching out! If the 4-Way on your 1996 Ford F-150 is from the factory then the only wire splicing you'll need to do is with the Adapter #37185, which plugs into your 4-Way and then you'll connect the rest of the wires to…
