Question:
I have a 2018 Jeep Cherokee Latitude that does not have an original tow package. Can you provide guidance on the exact set up I need for the wiring harness that includes the brake controller? Thank you

Hey Nick, we have everything you will need to install a brake controller on your 2018 Jeep Cherokee but you will first need to start with a 4-way which we offer with the part # 118605 as the best option that has the most reliable converter box. Next you will need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way and for that you would need the # ETBC7 which comes with everything needed to wire in a brake controller like our very popular and great performing Tekonsha P3 part # 90195.
