Question:
I’m about to install the etbc7 kit for 7 way trailer wiring. I also bought the Curt Bluetooth brake controller from you. Do I install the 20 or the 30 amp circuit breaker for use with the Curt controller? Thanks

Expert Reply:
Actually, for the Echo brake controller, you'll really only need the # ETBC7L kit, but the # ETBC7 kit you have will certainly work. You just won't need all the included parts.
To install the Curt # C51180 Echo wireless brake controller, you'd use the 30 amp breaker on the circuit running from the black wire on the 4-pole to 7-way adapter to the positive battery terminal. That's the only circuit you'd need to run to the front of the vehicle, and you wouldn't need any other of the included breakers.
I've linked to a video that will run your through the process.
