Can Redarc Tow Pro Elite Brake Controller Install in 2015 Volkswagen Touareg with 7-Way
Published 09/25/2018
Question:
I want to install the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 3 Axles - Proportional on my vehicle. I have the factory 7-way trailer wiring already installed. I have done some reading and it seems like I am also going to need a relay. Can you please advise exactly the parts that I will need and also install instructions? I contacted Redarc and they sent me back to you guys. Thanks in advance for your expertise.

The Redarc Tow Pro Elite part # RED44FR that you referenced can be installed in your 2015 Volkswagen Touareg and would be an excellent option for a brake controller but there are a few relays needed to install the controller that you'll only be able to find at a Volkswagen dealer. If you check out the help article I attached to this page you'll see exactly what you'll need and how to source it. As well as how to install everything too.
