Recommended Brake Controller With the Easiest Installation for 2022 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited
Published 12/01/2021
Question:
I am looking for a brake controller for my 2022 Wrangler Unlimited. I got the factory tow package, just so you know, if it matters. Maybe it doesn't, I'm really not sure. Ok so I want a brake controller that is easy to install, I'm really bad at installing things. I don't want to have to pay someone to install it either. What is the best choice for me?

For a brake controller that is easy to install on your 2022 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, or any vehicle, the best choice is the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # C51180. The Curt Echo plugs in line with the 7-way at the back of your Jeep, so there is no installation required in your vehicle. To clarify, one end of the Echo will plug into your vehicle side 7-way and the other end plugs into your trailer wiring.
This proportional brake controller is controlled through the app on your existing smartphone using Bluethooth. You can adjust the braking power, use the manual override, and store multiple trailer profiles all through the app. If your phone dies the brake controller continues to function using the current settings so there is nothing to worry about.
I have attached an installation video on a 2012 Wrangler Unlimited so you can see what the process looks like.
