Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 4 Axles - Proportional
part number: 39510

This proportional brake controller is designed to keep towing simple. Includes an LED braking indicator, a slide-bar manual override, and a knob to adjust braking power. Mounts easily within a 90-degree vertical range.

Features:

  • Brake controller activates trailer brakes in proportion to your vehicle's braking action
    • Automatically adjusts trailer's braking based on deceleration of tow vehicle
  • Simple controls keep your settings within easy reach
    • Gain setting lets you adjust the amount of power sent to the trailer's brakes
    • Slide-bar manual override allows you to control trailer sway or stop in emergencies
    • Sensitivity knob lets you set initial braking power and aggressiveness for smooth, safe braking
  • Green LED on the top of the module monitors a secure connection with trailer
    • Glows red to indicate that trailer brakes are being activated
  • Quick and easy installation with included bracket and hardware
    • 90-Degree vertical mounting range - must be horizontally level and parallel to direction of travel
    • Plug-in, vehicle-specific brake-control adapter available for select vehicles to reduce installation time


Specs:

  • Application: trailers with up to 4 axles (8 brake assemblies)
    • Compatible with electric brakes only
  • Dimensions: 5" long x 3" wide x 1-1/2" tall
  • Mounting: between -20 degrees and 70 degrees in the vertical plane
  • 5-Year limited warranty


Power and Sensitivity Adjustment

Once the brake controller is installed, you can use the knob on the right side of the unit to adjust the gain (also known as output). Gain lets you set the maximum amount of power that will be applied to your trailer's brakes. You want to set it as high as you can without locking up the brakes. Typically, this setting is only readjusted when you experience changing road conditions or if you switch over from a heavy, loaded trailer to a much lighter, empty trailer, or vice versa.


Tekonsha Voyager

You can fine-tune the gain by adjusting the sensitivity of the internal sensor using the knob on the left side. This controls the aggressiveness of your trailer's braking, meaning how quickly the brakes reach the maximum braking level. You can adjust this when you're towing heavy loads and you need more umph to bring your trailer to a stop. Your tow vehicle doesn't need that much power to brake in time, but your heavy trailer does. A high sensitivity level will get the braking power to your trailer brakes faster and with more intensity so that it doesn't push your tow vehicle forward.


LED Indicator

Keeping with its simple design, the Voyager will not overwhelm you with information. An LED indicator on the top of the unit lights up green to show that your trailer is securely connected to your tow vehicle. The LED indicator will change to red when the brakes on your trailer are activated.


During installation and setup, this light is also used to ensure that the Voyager will be able to function correctly. Proper leveling of the internal sensor is crucial to the operation of this brake controller. When the sensor is level, the LED will change to a shade of orange.


Simple Installation

The Voyager is designed to be mounted in your cab at a vertical angle that is between -20 degrees and 70 degrees. The brake controller needs to be horizontally level and parallel to the direction of travel in order to function properly.


Correct Voyager mounting90-Degree Voyager mounting

To connect the Voyager, hardwire the included harness to your vehicle. For a plug-and-play installation, a vehicle-specific wiring adapter is available for select vehicles. One end of the custom adapter plugs into your vehicle, and the other end plugs into the controller - no hardwiring required.


Once the controller is mounted and connected, you must level the internal sensor. First, set the overall power to the maximum using the knob on the side of the controller. Then, while pressing the tow vehicle's brake pedal, adjust the level knob on the other side of the brake controller (this is the same knob that is used to fine-tune the power output) until the LED monitor is a shade of orange.


Installation Accessories

See also etrailer.com's exclusive 7- and 4-way brake-control installation kit (ETBC7 - sold separately) if you don't already have a 7-way plug at the back of your vehicle.


Note: If a custom brake-control wiring adapter is not available for your vehicle, one of the following will be required:

20-Amp circuit breaker (9506P - sold separately) for 2- to 4-brake applications

30-Amp circuit breaker (38630 - sold separately) for 6- to 8-brake applications


Proportional Braking

What is proportional Braking

The Tekonsha Voyager brake controller comes equipped with proportional braking to give you the best towing experience. 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 uses a pendulum system 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.

Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers - Ford, Lincoln, Mercury
part number: 3035-P

Install your electric brake controller quickly and easily with this custom wiring adapter. Simply plug one end of the adapter into your brake controller and then plug the other end into the built-in harness beneath your vehicle's dash.

Features:

  • Wiring adapter eases installation of your electric brake controller
  • Custom connector end plugs into the built-in port beneath the dash of your vehicle
  • Other end plugs into the back of your electric brake controller
    • Compatible time-delayed brake controllers: Draw-Tite Activator I (5100), Draw-Tite Activator II (5500), Draw-Tite Activator III (5520) and Tekonsha PowerTrac (39523)

  • Limited 1-year warranty


Installation of Tekonsha Brake Controller Adapter

For most applications, the factory plug is located beneath the dash, near the center console. If you have a Ford full-size van, the harness is underneath and to the left of the steering column. The Ford Explorer and Mercury Mountaineer have 6-pin connectors behind the glove box on the passenger's side. On a Ford 2010 Flex, the connection point is under the front edge of the dash directly below the steering column. On a 2013 Ford Explorer, the connection point could be behind the driver's side kick panel. On a 2014 Ford Explorer, the brake controller port is located by the steering column.


To install your electric brake controller you need to connect the wiring of the controller to your vehicle. Certain manufacturers offer pre-wired options, typically known as tow packages, wherein these wires are run for you from the dash to the trailer connector on the back of your vehicle. Often, a brake controller wiring harness is included with your tow package. This harness plugs into a port beneath your dash and connects to the four wires of the brake controller. If, however, you have a brake controller with a plug in place of the four loose wires, you can use the Tekonsha adapter.


This adapter requires no hardwiring. It is designed to plug directly into your electric brake controller for the simplest installation possible. Because there are no wires to connect, installation is not permanent. You can unplug and remove your brake controller at any time and securely stow it away.

I am very satisfied with the Voyager brake Controller I purchased. It is the easiest unit to adjust that I have ever owned. The controls are easy to adjust and it has worked well with my trailers.

I ordered a Draw-Tite 5535 Brake Controller & adapter cable 3035-P from etrailer for my 2011 Ford Holiday Rambler F53 Chassis RV to tow my Tow Dolly with electric brakes. I ordered the parts on Saturday and received them on Thursday using economy shipping rate which was great. I received just what I ordered and installed them today (Friday) everything worked perfect and the install was very quick and easy.

2010 Land Rover Range Rover

I ordered the trailer brake adapter harness for my 2010 full size Range Rover.
It fit great and its well made to do the swap,
for others that will read this here is how.
I found the brake connector in the truck was hidden behind the fat harness thats next to the inside left kick panel, just behind the hood release panel
By pulling on the OBD 2 wire harness, I found it was tied to the OBD harness.

Some say that the connector is on the left side of the steering column , in my truck is was on the far side of the fat harness so it was hard to see.

I had to remove the left side console, I removed the screw, then pulled the bottom of the wood panel towards the left door, the 2 pins released, then the panel slides to the rear of the truck to dislodge the top pin.

5 screws secured the lower panel , remove the lamp ,unplug it,
then remove the OBD 2 connector from its mount , slide the gray collar to the left kick panel then the harness pushes up out of its holder.
Plug in your new adapter harness for your trailer brake controller,
Assemble is the reverse of taking it apart.
in the picture the new harness is connected to the gray connector

by: Corey M.08/01/2020

etrailer makes the purchase easy. I have always used Tekonsha Voyagers, and on my new truck (2015 Silverado) I also wanted the convenience of having the plug and play wiring harness. etrailer had exactly what I needed and was very easy to find on the website. Installation was flawless and clean thanks to the good hardware supplied. Very excited to put some trailers behind the truck with the stopping power confidence that comes with the Voyager.

Isuzu Rodeo

Multiple products which I purchased from Etrailer to upgrade my Capri Rodeo truck camper. The steps are well made, easy to setup, and extremely helpful in entering and exiting. I set them next to the door when travelling. The trailer brake controller smoothed out the jerking that was a problem for far too long and simple to install. The vent cover was definitely needed as the original had a hole in it. The removal and replacement went well.

by: Gary12/26/2020

The Tekonsha Voyager trailer brake controller works well in my 99 Silverado 1500, which was easy to setup for my trailer. The option to allow for different settings of aggression for the trailer braking has allowed the stopping with different loads to be graceful with the turn of a knob. Decided to install the controller in CD storage with velcro for a nice look. Easy access when in place during use for easy observation and twicking during operation. The wife can assist with the twicking while I am driving. Excellent product!

2015 Lincoln Navigator

I'd ordered the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Proportional Trailer Brake Controller (1 to 4 Axles ) on a Monday with a Wednesday delivery date of two days, as I'd specified. I have a Lincoln Navigator that had the factory installed heavy tow package. I had also ordered the adapter connector for Prodigy P2 controller to the Navigator's factory plugin. The entire install took me 15 minutes. I found the video review of the controller quite helpful as it demonstrated how to static set the controller's setting before drive trials and how to set the "boost" settings. Good price and very easy to install.

2007 Ford F-150

I haven't towed with the it yet. But installation on my 2007 Ford F150 was pretty simple. The plastic panel I attached it to had steel behind it. So I removed the plastic panel, mounted the bracket, then trimmed the excess length off the screws, and reinstalled the panel. The wiring harness plugged right into the truck's plug under the steering wheel. It seems like a great product, and having the specifc wiring harness for my truck made it simple to install. Sheila was very helpful too. Thanks.

Still working just fine. The Tekonsha controller and adapter performed fine on a long tow from NJ to OK and back last year, and I suspect they will continue to work just fine in the future. Definitely the way to go if the factory wiring is present.

by: Robert G07/15/2016

Completely plug and play installation and works flawlessly, very happy with this unit. I also ordered the exact harness for my 2005 f150 with tow package. Here are a couple of hints that may be helpful. My installation also required a 30 amp cartridge fuse to be installed in the fuse panel in location #105(electric trailer brakes) under the dash on the passenger side. I also installed a relay in location r05 (trailer tow battery charge) but I don't think this is needed for the controller to function. I still had the original trailer brake kit and it had the additional fuse panel instructions and the relay. The owners manual showed where the 30 amp fuse and relay plugs in. You cannot test this unit until a trailer with brakes is connected, ie the led will not light up until it senses a brake circuit.

This is my second Tekonsha; I had to replace my 10-year old one after I accidentally broke it.

This one is a bit of an upgrade, and is easily able to lock up the disc brakes on my 15,000 lb trailer. Adjusting it properly, I'm able to brake as though there were no trailer at all. Set it, and forget it. It doesn't get any easier than that.

by: Alfie07/30/2020

Received this yesterday and was able to install it today. Instructions were very easy to follow and the only problem I had installing it was contorting myself to install the bracket. Once I got the bracket in place the rest was a piece of cake. Went for a test drive as the instructions suggested and did have to tweak it a little but it's doing exactly what I expect it to do. I'll be hauling a John Deere Tractor and wanted to make sure the brakes on the trailer worked.

  • Troubleshooting Tekonsha Voyager 39510 Having Green Light When Brake Pedal Is Pressed
  • I would be happy to help! Since you are getting the green light on your Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller # 39510 but are not getting the red/orange light when applying the brakes then more than likely there is a short in the brake output wire, but first make sure the gain setting on the controller is not set at the minimum. Since you are getting power to the 7-way connector of your 2006 Dodge Ram 1500, the issue is somewhere on the trailer. You will want to check the wires

  • Is Brake Controller Bad When Testing if it Shows With Blue Wire Cut
  • You definitely tested the unit correctly, and when you cut the blue wire, it should only have power when you apply the manual override; since it showed power at idle then there is an issue with the controller and it will need to be replaced. If you were happy with the Voyager you can replace it with another, the Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller # 39510, or if you are ready to upgrade, go with the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195.

  • Trailer Brake Controller is Putting Out Low Voltage when Set High on a Dump Truck
  • The longer distance the power has to travel, the more the voltage will drop. But if the controller is set to the max output then you should have nearly 12 volts at the trailer connector. If you are testing the blue wire directly behind the controller, make sure that you sever it first because otherwise the result could be skewed. If the controller is still not showing at least 12 volts with the manual override this time then make sure the controller is not tilted or turned to the side

  • Connect Trailer and Factory Brake Controller in 2005 Ford F-350 Still Shows Trailer Not Connected
  • Since the factory brake controller in your 2005 Ford F-350 isn't showing the trailer connected and this is happening with both of your trailers I think that it is safe to say that the issue is on the truck side. I would start by using a circuit tester like part # PTW2993, to test for power on the brake output circuit at the back of the truck. You'll want a helper to hold the manual override while you do the testing on the connector. If you find that there is no power, which is what

  • Easy to Install Brake Controller Recommendation for 2019 Forest River Berkshire Motorhome
  • The easiest solution for installing a brake controller in your 2019 Forest River Berkshire is the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180 which basically just plugs into an active 7-way at the rear of your tow vehicle and once synced to your smart phone is ready to easily control your trailer brakes. There isn't a plug and play harness for your RV so to do any other route for a brake controller would be pretty challenging which is why the Echo is your best choice for sure.

  • How To Tell if A Ford Explorer Has A Factory 7-Way and Recommended Brake Controller
  • You are on the right track David. It looks like you have a factory tow package on your 2017 Ford Explorer since you have a 7-way and your owners manual mentions the fuse. Also the 7-Way and 4-Way on your truck are OEM factory part numbers so it has not been wired with an aftermarket plug. The brake controller would go in the Ford Explorer to activate the brakes on your trailer. All you need is the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195 and the wiring adapter part #

  • Does the 2002 Ford F-250 Have a Factory Brake Controller
  • For clarification, I don't believe that a factory integrated brake controller was available on Ford trucks until 2009. For that reason it won't be present on your 2002 Ford F-250. Judging by the question you were referred from, this neighbor was referring to the factory plug that allows you to use a plug and play adapter to install your aftermarket brake controller like the # 3035-P instead of hard wiring. You will need to install a brake controller and, if you don't have one on the

  • Where Does a Brake Controller Plug Into on a 1999 to 2011 Ford F53 or F59 Chassis
  • Your Winnebago will have to have been built on a Ford F53 or F59 chassis for the connector for a brake controller to be there and to use the harness # 3035-P for Ford vehicles. I have included a picture showing where the connector is on a 1999 through 2011 Ford F53 or F59 chassis. It is pretty far up back behind the steering column and instrument panel on the vehicle. For a brake controller I recommend the P2 # 90885.

  • Where Is the Brake Controller Plug On a 2019 Ford Explorer
  • The brake controller port on a 2019 Ford Explorer should be located behind the glove box on the passenger side or underneath and left of the steering column near the emergency brake pedal. That said, I say should because the location of the brake controller port is not always as exact as one would think and can vary between vehicles. Please note, they are usually taped to other wires in a harness and have some sort of foam wrapped around them. Furthermore, there can be a plug in the end

  • Troubleshooting Tekonsha Commander Brake Controller Not Powering On
  • Since the Tekonsha Commander is an older model trailer brake controller, I spoke with my contact there just to ensure that the wires used on the unit are standard as it relates to their colors. He informed me that there is no difference in the wiring, and if splicing an adapter like # 3035-P into the unit, it should connect color for color, like what you mentioned doing. Since the wiring matches up, it's possible that the controller itself has simply gone bad and is in need of a replacement.

  • Troubleshooting a Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Brake Controller Not Seeing a Trailer on a 2004 Ford Excursion
  • For your 2004 Ford Excursion the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3035-P is the correct wiring harness adapter to use with the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 for a plug-n-play installation. If you have your trailer connected and it isn't reading it's possible you need to check some fuses or relays in your Excursion. Also, check the pins on the # 3035-P to make sure none are bent and the connections are being made. Another thing to check is that the 7-way trailer connector on both the Excursion

  • Installing a Brake Controller in a 2004 Ford Explorer with Factory 4-Way
  • You basically will need to install your brake controller in your 2004 Ford Explorer exactly like the video I attached details. The pigtail part # 3035-P will be used to install the brake controller but the blue wire will need to be cut from the harness and ran to the 7-way like the video shows. The other three circuits of the connector will still get used and will make the install easier than having to totally hardwire the controller. This harness will provide the power, ground, and

  • The installation of the Tekonsha P3 Brake Controller, # 90195, will be similar as seen in the video for the 2009 and 2010 Ford F-150, but there are some subtle difference. The most notable difference is that the 2011 Ford F-150 uses a different brake controller wiring harness. Instead of # 3035-P, the correct harness is # 22292. I have included a link to the brake controller installation details as well as a link that shows and explains the installation of the wiring harness.

  • Brake Controller Recommendation for 2008 Ford Expedition with 4-Way

For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes. This

  • Electric Trailer Brake Controller Recommendation for a 2010 Ford F-150
  • Brake controllers are not vehicle specific, so you will be able to use any one you want. The wiring harnesses are vehicle specific and on your 2010 Ford F-150, the harness will plug into a port on the truck. This port will be located to the right of the steering column behind the black pocket in the dash. For your truck, I recommend the Tekonsha P2 # 90885 with Wiring Harness# 22292.
