Where Is The Factory Pig Tail Connector For My Brake Controller In My 2020 Nissan Armada
Published 12/17/2021
Question:
I installed a brake controller on my 2011 Nissan Armada. I have upgraded to a 2020 Armada but cant find the factory pig tail. Is the 2020 pre wired for a controller?

Initially, I was not able to find where you would plug in your wiring harness. For example, if you are using the following brake controller
Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 4 Axles - Proportional, part # 90885, and the
Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers - Nissan and Infiniti, part # 3050-P,
your plug-in wiring adapter is designed to plug into a port inside the cab of your 2020 Nissan Armada. After doing a little more investigation, I found out that this plug is zip-tied behind a panel underneath your dash almost right above your brake pedal. You will need a box cutter or knife to cut the tape/zip tie to drop the brake controller connector. Once you find the factory pig tail, the installation is straightforward.
I have included a product description link AND a video installation of a Tekonsha Trailer Brake Controller. Please pay particular attention around the 3:50 mark, this is where the installer locates the factory pig tail in a 2018 Nissan Armada. It should be in the same vicinity in your 2020 Nissan Armada.
