Question:
What do you guys think about the Autowbreak or Tekonsha Prodigy RF braking systems. Im looking to save some room by the steering wheel. Are these as effective as regular electronic break systems?

Expert Reply:
Both the Autowbrake Electric Brake Controller # 3430001 and Tekonsha Prodigy RF Wireless Trailer Brake Controller # TK94FR are great options to add a brake controller to the trailer. This is ideal if you have one trailer that you need to use the brake controller for. The Autowbrake will require you to wire in the module to your 7-Way Junction Box # 3430001-JBK. If you do not feel comfortable with wiring the Tekonsha simply plugs in line on your trailer 7-way.
Both controllers are proportional which will adjust automatically for light or severe braking ensuring you do not have to adjust the controller constantly why you drive or ramp up the force for panic braking.
