How to Mount the Tekonsha Prodigy RF Wireless Trailer Brake Controller
Updated 08/07/2018 | Published 08/04/2018
Question:
Is it imperative that I mount the controller with the cable toward the front of the trailer? The cleanest way to mount it on my Casita trailer is with the cable facing toward the rear. Otherwise I need to use different bolts and some kind of mounting plate.

The Tekonsha Prodigy RF Wireless Trailer Brake Controller part # TK94FR must be mounted within ± 5 degrees of level on the horizontal plane and must be lined up so that the power cable extends toward the tow vehicle for the internal sensor to function properly.
I have attached a photo of this for you.
