Brake Controller Recommendation for a 2016 Nissan NV2500
Published 09/22/2016
Question:
I have 2012 Nissan NV2500 with factory 7-way connector and hitch. Id like to add a brake controller. The wiring harness came with the vehicle but I dont know where to plug it in. A guy at Nissan told me under the dash but I dont see where. Your websight shows how to hardwire one, but Im looking for where to plug in the wiring harness. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

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.
To install this in your 2016 Nissan NV 2500 all you need is the correct install harness part # 3050-P which is a confirmed fit.
On your vehicle the correct harness to use will be taped to another under the dash by the emergency brake pedal. I attached a picture that points it out. It's not the highest quality picture but I hope it helps.
