Electric Trailer Brake Controllers

Find electric trailer brake controllers designed to control compatible electric trailer brakes from the tow vehicle. A properly configured brake controller helps coordinate trailer braking with the tow vehicle and allows the driver to adjust trailer braking output for the specific towing setup.

Brake controllers can vary by vehicle compatibility, trailer braking system, number of trailer axles, installation requirements, and control technology. Verify the controller specifications for your tow vehicle and trailer before ordering.

Proportional Trailer Brake Controllers

Shop proportional trailer brake controllers designed to adjust trailer braking based on the braking activity of the tow vehicle. Depending on the controller design, sensors can be used to determine braking intensity and apply the trailer brakes accordingly.

Installation orientation, calibration, adjustment, and operating requirements vary between controller models, so follow the manufacturer's instructions for the specific unit.

Time-Delayed Trailer Brake Controllers

Time-delayed brake controllers apply trailer braking according to user-adjustable settings and the controller's programmed operation. These controllers can provide a straightforward option for compatible electric trailer braking systems.

Correct adjustment is important for achieving appropriate trailer braking without excessive or insufficient brake application.

Trailer Brake Controller Wiring Harnesses

Find trailer brake controller wiring harnesses, plug-in adapters, pigtails, connectors, and installation wiring for compatible tow vehicles. Vehicle-specific harnesses can simplify installation when the vehicle is equipped with the appropriate factory brake-controller connection.

Before ordering, verify the vehicle year, make, model, factory tow package, connector configuration, and brake-controller compatibility.

Trailer Brake Wiring & Electrical Components

Shop wiring and electrical components used between the brake controller, tow vehicle, trailer connector, and compatible trailer braking system. Depending on the application, this may include brake wiring, connectors, adapters, replacement harnesses, breakaway wiring components, and installation accessories.

Trailer brake circuits commonly operate alongside lighting and auxiliary-power circuits. Electrical connections should be properly sized, securely connected, and installed according to the brake controller, trailer, and vehicle manufacturers' instructions.
