Is There a Brake Controller Harness That Plugs In Under the Dash on a 2019 BMW X5

Question

Question:

This is the wrong adapter for 2019 BMW and newer. The brake controller plugs in under the dash, not in the rear. This adapter is 20foot too long. I contacted etrailer last October with pictures and notes. They know but havent fixed this.

It's possible that there is a brake controller port under the dash on certain 2019 BMW X5's, but none of the aftermarket manufacturers we carry support this plug. The only option we offer for installing an electric trailer brake controller like the Tekonsha BRAKE-EVN Trailer Brake Controller part # TK63VR without splicing is with the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers part # TK29FR. This harness plugs in at the rear. I checked with Tekonsha and the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers is listed as a fit for a 2007 - 2023 BMW X5.

If you need the brake controller harness that plugs in under the dash you'd need to reach out to the dealer.

You'd just have to cut the connector your Voyager has now off so that you can hardwire the #7865 to it matching color for color since yours was already cut and wired. We don't have a harness that fits to factory wiring of your vehicle.
