Curt C51180 Echo Wireless Brake Controller Displaying Flashing Blue LED

Published 03/17/2022

Question:

Flashes blue when plugged in not solid blue. Flashes red when remove controller. Cleaned connections and trailer connector connects cleanly directly to trailer, but Echo still flashes blue when ed and red when removed. ???

The flashing blue light means that the Curt # C51180 Echo wireless brake controller isn't paired to your phone.

If the controller was previously paired to your phone, you'll want to delete the app and reinstall it. The pairing procedure is outlined in the installation instructions which I've linked for you. The instructions even include a QR code you can scan with your phone to download the app so you don't need to mess with the app store.
