Recommended Brake Controller to 2024 Nissan Frontier With Tow Package

Question

Question:

I have a 2024 Frontier with the tow package and I would like to add a brake controller. Can you please give me a recommendation? I believe I have a place to plug one in under the dash so I don't want to splice something in.

For your 2024 Nissan Frontier I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR. I like the Liberty because it is simple, reliable, and looks great in any vehicle. The main unit installs behind the dash, so only the control knob will be visible. The knob controls the braking power and acts as the manual override. It also uses colored LED lights for diagnostics. The # RED39FR wiring harness will plug into the port under the dash you referenced for a plug and play installation.

@Glenn take a look at the video I attached starting at the 4:30 mark. You probably tried to match it up with the first plug Conner referenced which is why it didn't fit. The factory tow port will be taped up above the smaller plug.

We have not had the opportunity to do a brake controller installation on a 2023 Nissan Frontier yet. But if the plug is located in the same place as the 2022 model year, then the plug will be tucked behind the kick plate located to the left of the…

Answer 11

A factory 7-way trailer connector isn't all you need to power a trailer's electric brakes. You still need a brake controller. Some Ford F-150s are equipped with a factory integrated brake controller, which you may have. If your 2012 Ford…

Yes, you do Eric. None of the 2025 Nissan Frontier's without the trailer connectors came with the wiring relays. Nissan's been doing this for quite awhile to save production costs. To add a 4-way connector that includes the wiring relays,…
