• Availability of Just Wiring of Trailer Wiring Adapter Kits ETBC7/ETBC6
  Actually I think what would be the best solution for you would be the part # 5506 which is just the items you need from either the # ETBC7 or the # ETBC6 since it's just the wiring without the wiring adapter. The only thing not included is the zip ties which we don't offer as separate items but those are easy to source.

• Parts Needed to Convert 4-Way of 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport to 6/7-Way and Install Brake Controller
  You would need to convert the 4-way to a 6-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC6. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well. In most cases you'd want a 7-way and not a 6-way so you'd instead want the part # ETBC7. For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because...

• Is Brake Controller Install Kit, Part ETBC7 Needed to Install Brake Controller on 1998 Suburban?
  On your model year, in some instances GM ran a orange and blue wire from under the brake master cylinder to the rear of the vehicle, along the drivers side frame rail. If this wiring is in place, all of the rest of the connections must be wired into the vehicle. I usually recommend using the Brake Controller Installation Kit anyway. The kit includes the trailer connector, circuit breakers, hardware and wire. You most likely will not need all of the wire in the kit, but as a matter of convenience...

• Installing a 7-Way or 6-Way Trailer Connector on a 2014 Honda Pilot With Electric Brake Power
  If your 2014 Honda Pilot came with the factory tow package, then you can use the Tow Ready Custom Fit Wiring Harness, # 118265. The electric brake circuit will work, but you will also need a brake controller, like the Tekonsha Prodigy P3, # 90195, and a custom brake controller wiring adapter, like part # 3070-P. The brake controller is what applies power to the electric trailer brake circuit. Models that came pre-wired for the tow package will have a factory brake controller plug located...

• Brake Controller and Wiring Recommendation for a 2008 Ford Explorer Towing Trailer with 6-Way
  The part # 37175 could be used to adapt your 4-way to a 6-way, but you will be required to track down several other components so that you can make the connector functional and to install a brake controller. A better product to get would be the part # ETBC6 as it comes with everything needed to convert the 4-way to a 6-way and wire up a brake controller. I attached a link to install instructions plus an install video for you to check out. I also attached a picture that has a diagram that...

• Trailer Wiring and Brake Controller Recommendation for a 2010 Toyota Sienna
  You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 118304. Now to convert the 4-way to a round 6-way you would only need the part # 37175. If all you need is trailer light functions this would be all that you would need. If instead you need to control the brakes of your trailer you would need the # ETBC6 instead of the # 37175. For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake...

• Adapting a 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector on 2011 Toyota Tacoma to 6 Round on 1983 Coleman Camper
  Since your truck has a 4-Way flat connector and the trailer has a 6-Way round, adapter # HM47320 will not work. It is made to go from a 6-Way round on a vehicle to a 4-Way flat on a trailer. What you need is an adapter like # A10-6034VP. Your 4-way will plug into the adapter, and you will need to ground the white wire to the truck frame. The other two wires on the adapter are black for 12-volt power and blue for electric brakes. If you do not wish to use these functions, then you can tape...

• Which Trailer Connector is Needed for 2009 Chevy Traverse without Tow Package
  The trailer connector you need will depend on the type of trailer you are planning on towing and whether or not your Traverse is set up with factory tow package wiring. If you are going to tow a smaller utility or flat bed trailer that does not have electric brakes or on board accessories that would require power like an electric jack or interior lighting, then a 4 pole connector should be just fine for you. To provide a 4 pole connector on your Traverse without factory tow package wiring,...

• Converting Existing Hydraulic Brake System to Electric on Pop-Up Camper
  The Dexter Hub/ Drum you mentioned, part # 8-173-16UC3 would be a proper replacement for you as long as the inner and outer bearings in your existing hubs are # L44649, the grease seal is # 10-9 and the 4-on-4 bolt pattern matches up with your existing hubs. Your existing bearings and grease seals should have reference numbers stamped on them, make sure the numbers on the existing parts match those of the replacements. You will also need electric brake assemblies, part # 23-47 for the...

• Installing Hopkins Agility Brake Controller Part # HM47294 in 2005 Dodge Dakota with No Tow Package
  Hopkins does not offer a universal plug for the Agility Brake Controller. Your best bet would be to order the controller and harness combination you referenced, and cut off the vehicle end of the plug as you mentioned. The bare leads on the end of the harness would then be hardwired into the vehicle. We offer a Hardwired Brake Controller Install Kit, part # ETBC7 for a 7-way trailer connector, or # ETBC6 for a 6-way. The install kit provides the adapter to convert a 4-pole connector to...

• Parts Needed To Install a Brake Controller and 6-Pole Connector on 2015 Ford Fusion
  Before deciding to tow your camper with your Ford Fusion, I recommend checking your owner's manual for the towing capacity of your vehicle. It is important to not exceed the manufacturer's maximum towing capacity for your vehicle. Since your micro camper has a 6-way trailer connector, it is likely that the trailer has electric brakes. To power your trailer's brakes, you will need a wiring harness, a brake controller, and a brake controller installation kit. To start wiring your 2015...

• Do Your Carry an OEM Replacement 6-Way Connector for a 2008 Ford F-150
  A 2008 Ford F-150 would have come with either a 4-Way or 7-Way connector. There is not an OEM 6-Way. You can convert your 4-Way into a 6-Way using 6-Way Installation kit part # ETBC6. You would plug your existing 4-Way into the 4-Way socket on the ETBC6, then you would run the blue wire to either the reverse lights or brake controller, depending on how your trailer is set up, and then you would run the red wire up to the battery for a 12V power source.

• Suggested Weight Distribution and Brake Controller for 1993 Suburban Towing Horse Trailer
  The dry weight of the trailer, 2810 lbs, a 900 lb horse with the possibility of another plus gear would place your maximum loaded trailer weight somewhere in the neighborhood of 5000 pounds. When calculating the necessary capacity of a weight distribution system, the weight of any cargo loaded in the tow vehicle behind the rear axle needs to be considered as well. The 5000 pound figure also includes an estimated 400 lbs of gear both in the trailer and in the rear of the tow vehicle. Given...

• Recommended Brake Controller for 1991 Ford F250
  Brake Controllers are not vehicle specific, you can use any controller you wish on your F250. This being said, I would recommend a proportional-type controller like the Tekonsha Prodigy P2, part # 90885. The Prodigy P2 is our best selling brake controller, and is popular because it is easy to use and the initial set up is very simple. A proportional controller is superior to the older technology used by the time-delayed brake controllers. The proportional controller uses an internal sensor...

• Connecting Wires of 37175 4-Pole to 6-Way Adapter to Install Brake Controller on 2011 Ford F150
  The # 4 pole on the 37175 would plug directly into the existing 4 pole on your truck, leaving three remaining wires. The blue wire carries the output voltage from the brake controller, the red wire carries 12-volt auxiliary power from the vehicle to the trailer and the white wire is a ground. The red and blue wires would be lengthened and ran under the vehicle up to the engine compartment. The blue wire would run through the firewall and connect to the blue wire exiting the rear of the...

• Installing Brake Controller and 7-way Trailer Connector on 2014 Ford Focus
  If your trailer has electric brakes and a 6-or7-way trailer connector, you'll need to install a brake controller on your vehicle to actuate the trailer brakes. Before attempting to tow your trailer, I'd recommend you determine the fully loaded weight of your trailer, and ensure it doesn't exceed the towing capacity of your Focus. If your trailer weighs less than the towing capacity of the vehicle, you'd begin by choosing a brake controller. The Tekonsha Primus, part # TK90160 is a reasonably-priced...

• Parts Needed To Tow Car with Car Dolly
  A car dolly like # RM-2050-1 comes with electric brakes, adjustable wheel nets fitting tires ranging from 12" to 16", tail/brake lights and a 6-way round trailer connector. Use of a towing dolly does require an electric brake controller that mounts inside the towing vehicle and that activates the tow dolly brakes when the motor home brakes are applied. One of the most popular is the Tekonsha Prodigy P2, part # 90885. You will also need a wiring kit, part # ETBC6. This kit includes everything...

• Adapter Recommendation to Install Brake Controller in a 2016 Mazda CX-9 with 4-Way
  To install your Tekonsha brake controller and activate the 12 volt accessory circuit you would need the part # ETBC7. This kit comes with everything needed to convert the 4-way to a 7-way and install the brake controller. Most likely your Fleetwood uses a 7-way and not a 6-way since the RV world almost exclusively uses 7-ways and the agricultural world uses 6-ways. When you counted the pins did you count 6 on the outside and then a center pin? If so then you have a 7-way. In the off chance...

You will also need the # ETBC6, Brake Controller 6 and 4 Way Installation Kit, which has all of the items needed to upgrade your 4-Way connector to the 6-Pole Round connector for towing with trailer brakes and accessory power.
