Question:
Is the Tekonsha voyager brake controller compatible with the HBA16?
asked by: Vaughn S
Expert Reply:
The Primus IQ part # TK90160 is not compatible with electric over hydraulic brake actuators like the part # HBA16 but the Prodigy P2 part # 90885 is.
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 will be the last brake controller you buy. It can easily be transferred to future vehicles as well.
The controller does have to be set in hydraulic mode which is covered in the install instructions link I attached.
