Question:
Is there a brake controller that i can simply plug and play for my 2016 fleetwood bounder? It has a 7 pin plug already , simple is better for me only towing dbl axle utv trailer. Didnt want to have to run wires ect. if there is some sort of t under dash that can be plugged into? FYI i did all the suspension upgrades that you folks recommended, sumo springs,front/rear stabilizers and steering stabilizer also and boy what a difference!!! Thanks for your excellent advice and wonderful products!!!

I'm glad to hear that your suspension upgrades have worked out well! We can absolutely help you get a brake controller that will work well for you, too.
The best solution to avoid any wiring into the cabin on your 2016 Fleetwood Bounder is the Curt Echo # C51180, which just plugs into your RV's 7 way trailer connector on the rear and will allow you to control the brakes on a trailer. I also prefer this option to a cabin mounted controller because it will allow you to use it on any vehicle with a 7 way trailer plug and never have to worry about installing a brake controller in your vehicles again. The Curt Echo is operated via your smart phone (iOS 8.0 or newer/Android 4.4 or newer) and provides you with responsive proportional braking for your trailer.
I've linked a short review video of the Echo for you to check out, as well.
