Question:

I do not see any 7pin trailer harness kits for a 2006 Ridgeline. It looks like the Honda Pilot kits could work. Something like Curt Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring - 56097. Ive looked at the OEM harness P/N 08L91-SJC-100B and it doesnt seem to include the control unit and harness for up in the dash. Can you steer me in the right direction?

Expert Reply:

You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 118400.

From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well.

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.

If you don't need a brake controller instead of the ETBC7 and the 90885 you would want the part # 37185.
