Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 4 Axles - Proportional
part number: 39510
This proportional brake controller is designed to keep towing simple. Includes an LED braking indicator, a slide-bar manual override, and a knob to adjust braking power. Mounts easily within a 90-degree vertical range.
Features:
- Brake controller activates trailer brakes in proportion to your vehicle's braking action
- Automatically adjusts trailer's braking based on deceleration of tow vehicle
- Simple controls keep your settings within easy reach
- Gain setting lets you adjust the amount of power sent to the trailer's brakes
- Slide-bar manual override allows you to control trailer sway or stop in emergencies
- Sensitivity knob lets you set initial braking power and aggressiveness for smooth, safe braking
- Green LED on the top of the module monitors a secure connection with trailer
- Glows red to indicate that trailer brakes are being activated
- Quick and easy installation with included bracket and hardware
- 90-Degree vertical mounting range - must be horizontally level and parallel to direction of travel
- Plug-in, vehicle-specific brake-control adapter available for select vehicles to reduce installation time
Specs:
- Application: trailers with up to 4 axles (8 brake assemblies)
- Compatible with electric brakes only
- Dimensions: 5" long x 3" wide x 1-1/2" tall
- Mounting: between -20 degrees and 70 degrees in the vertical plane
- 5-Year limited warranty
Power and Sensitivity Adjustment
Once the brake controller is installed, you can use the knob on the right side of the unit to adjust the gain (also known as output). Gain lets you set the maximum amount of power that will be applied to your trailer's brakes. You want to set it as high as you can without locking up the brakes. Typically, this setting is only readjusted when you experience changing road conditions or if you switch over from a heavy, loaded trailer to a much lighter, empty trailer, or vice versa.
You can fine-tune the gain by adjusting the sensitivity of the internal sensor using the knob on the left side. This controls the aggressiveness of your trailer's braking, meaning how quickly the brakes reach the maximum braking level. You can adjust this when you're towing heavy loads and you need more umph to bring your trailer to a stop. Your tow vehicle doesn't need that much power to brake in time, but your heavy trailer does. A high sensitivity level will get the braking power to your trailer brakes faster and with more intensity so that it doesn't push your tow vehicle forward.
LED Indicator
Keeping with its simple design, the Voyager will not overwhelm you with information. An LED indicator on the top of the unit lights up green to show that your trailer is securely connected to your tow vehicle. The LED indicator will change to red when the brakes on your trailer are activated.
During installation and setup, this light is also used to ensure that the Voyager will be able to function correctly. Proper leveling of the internal sensor is crucial to the operation of this brake controller. When the sensor is level, the LED will change to a shade of orange.
Simple Installation
The Voyager is designed to be mounted in your cab at a vertical angle that is between -20 degrees and 70 degrees. The brake controller needs to be horizontally level and parallel to the direction of travel in order to function properly.
To connect the Voyager, hardwire the included harness to your vehicle. For a plug-and-play installation, a vehicle-specific wiring adapter is available for select vehicles. One end of the custom adapter plugs into your vehicle, and the other end plugs into the controller - no hardwiring required.
Once the controller is mounted and connected, you must level the internal sensor. First, set the overall power to the maximum using the knob on the side of the controller. Then, while pressing the tow vehicle's brake pedal, adjust the level knob on the other side of the brake controller (this is the same knob that is used to fine-tune the power output) until the LED monitor is a shade of orange.
Installation Accessories
See also etrailer.com's exclusive 7- and 4-way brake-control installation kit (ETBC7 - sold separately) if you don't already have a 7-way plug at the back of your vehicle.
Note: If a custom brake-control wiring adapter is not available for your vehicle, one of the following will be required:
20-Amp circuit breaker (9506P - sold separately) for 2- to 4-brake applications
30-Amp circuit breaker (38630 - sold separately) for 6- to 8-brake applications
Proportional Braking
The Tekonsha Voyager brake controller comes equipped with proportional braking to give you the best towing experience. Proportional braking means that your trailer brakes mimic your tow vehicle's brakes. If you slam on the brakes in your vehicle, your trailer brakes will activate with the same intensity; if you brake lightly, your trailer brakes lightly too. The trailer's braking is in proportion to your vehicle's braking. This saves wear and tear on the tires and the brakes on both your vehicle and trailer.
The Voyager uses a pendulum system to sense how your vehicle is braking so it can send the right amount of braking power to your trailer. It measures the inertia of your tow vehicle and activates the trailer's brakes to slow at the same rate. The result is uniform braking across your towing setup. No push-pull action - just smooth, proportional braking every time.

Installation of Tekonsha Brake Controller Adapter
This adapter plugs into the port that is built into the electric junction box beneath your vehicle's dash. The black box is located to the left of the steering column, just above the carpet. To plug in the adapter, first remove the cover on the box. The adapter plugs into the second slot from the left, on the top row.
To install your electric brake controller you need to connect the wiring of the controller to your vehicle. Certain manufacturers offer pre-wired options, typically known as tow packages, wherein these wires are run for you from the dash to the trailer connector on the back of your vehicle. Often, a brake controller wiring harness is included with your tow package. This harness plugs into a port beneath your dash and connects to the four wires of the brake controller. If, however, you have a brake controller with a plug in place of the four loose wires, you can use the Tekonsha adapter.
This adapter requires no hardwiring. It is designed to plug directly into your electric brake controller for the simplest installation possible. Because there are no wires to connect, installation is not permanent. You can unplug and remove your brake controller at any time and securely stow it away.

I am very satisfied with the Voyager brake Controller I purchased. It is the easiest unit to adjust that I have ever owned. The controls are easy to adjust and it has worked well with my trailers.
by: Chase06/29/2023
Very easy to install and setup. Came with very simple instructions and my old controller bracket was the exact same as this one!
by: Corey M.08/01/2020
etrailer makes the purchase easy. I have always used Tekonsha Voyagers, and on my new truck (2015 Silverado) I also wanted the convenience of having the plug and play wiring harness. etrailer had exactly what I needed and was very easy to find on the website. Installation was flawless and clean thanks to the good hardware supplied. Very excited to put some trailers behind the truck with the stopping power confidence that comes with the Voyager.
by: Gary12/26/2020
The Tekonsha Voyager trailer brake controller works well in my 99 Silverado 1500, which was easy to setup for my trailer. The option to allow for different settings of aggression for the trailer braking has allowed the stopping with different loads to be graceful with the turn of a knob. Decided to install the controller in CD storage with velcro for a nice look. Easy access when in place during use for easy observation and twicking during operation. The wife can assist with the twicking while I am driving. Excellent product!

I ordered this brake controller about a week ago and received it today (4-18-20).
Im always working on things and my old lady gets bored, so today was sort of our day! Well i decided id make a bet, 20 bucks i can have it installed in 15 minutes!! She agreed and the race was on!! I ran out, grabbed my drill, a small drill bit, a hex head bit, and got to work! I opted for the removable bracket for worry somebody may break in and steal it.
It marked two holes, drilled them with a very small bit, and then screwed the proveded screws in, i then popped the brake controller in, ran the wiring ( sepratly provided
by etrailer.com, for my specific vehicle, a 2004 gmc yukon)above everything to the plug box under the dash, plugged it in, put the cover back on, and wallah!! 15 minutes exactly!
This thing looks great, works great, and is priced great!
by: Kyle08/11/2019
I know this isn’t a pic of the item, BUT it wouldn’t have been possible without. Plug and Play. I bought this because we bought a trailer from a dealer and they required the truck to have trailer brakes. This plugs in under dash, if your truck has 7 pin. I did it without checking to make sure it was activated. Went to dealer, 130 miles away and 4000 feet in elevation to pu trailer. As I was pulling out and first hit brakes the trailer locked up. (There is an adjustment device, that purchased separately, or in a kit pugs into wiring harness that plugs into truck to activate trailer brakes). So I adjusted it and everything worked beautifully. Oh my gosh I have pulled trailers for years but never a TT. Tons of car trailers but never with brakes. Brakes are awesome when going over passes of 5k elevation.
THIS COMPANY ROCKS. The only issues I have had with this company is my own ordering fault. I have used them for years and indirect people to them.
THANK YOU.
by: Robert G07/15/2016
Completely plug and play installation and works flawlessly, very happy with this unit. I also ordered the exact harness for my 2005 f150 with tow package. Here are a couple of hints that may be helpful. My installation also required a 30 amp cartridge fuse to be installed in the fuse panel in location #105(electric trailer brakes) under the dash on the passenger side. I also installed a relay in location r05 (trailer tow battery charge) but I don't think this is needed for the controller to function. I still had the original trailer brake kit and it had the additional fuse panel instructions and the relay. The owners manual showed where the 30 amp fuse and relay plugs in. You cannot test this unit until a trailer with brakes is connected, ie the led will not light up until it senses a brake circuit.
by: James03/27/2024
Instructions were simple and straight forward. Unit is very responsive and simple to use. The prefabricated chord was nice but wished it were longer for more mounting options. Still very happy with the product and its performance.
by: Mark01/04/2020
This is my second Tekonsha; I had to replace my 10-year old one after I accidentally broke it.
This one is a bit of an upgrade, and is easily able to lock up the disc brakes on my 15,000 lb trailer. Adjusting it properly, I'm able to brake as though there were no trailer at all. Set it, and forget it. It doesn't get any easier than that.

Great product was almost to easy to install spend a little and get the prodigy 3 you will not be sorry.

Easy install, just plug it in, use the 2 self tapping screws for the mounting bracket, mount the controller with 2 screws, a couple of tie straps, DONE Instructions for use very clear.
by: Christopher07/09/2020
Installed in my 2018 Silverado Custom. I ordered the additional wiring harness and the install took less than thirty minutes. Plug and Play at its simplest. Thank You etrailer.

The brake controller is working great for the last year. Great product, I use it alot.
by: Alfie07/30/2020
Received this yesterday and was able to install it today. Instructions were very easy to follow and the only problem I had installing it was contorting myself to install the bracket. Once I got the bracket in place the rest was a piece of cake. Went for a test drive as the instructions suggested and did have to tweak it a little but it's doing exactly what I expect it to do. I'll be hauling a John Deere Tractor and wanted to make sure the brakes on the trailer worked.
by: Dave12/10/2020
Amazing product. Easy to use and good display. The wire harness to make it plug and go. Make easy for anyone to install.

by: Jake 08/20/2021
This was an easy install on my 2019 GMC truck using the appropriate wiring adapter. Instructions for setting up the control were clear. After a few adjustments my trailer brakes worked as they should. Minor adjustments of the controller are needed from time to time, but overall the controller is reliable. Good value.
by: Timothy07/12/2023
Plugs for both ends fit just right. Using this adapter eliminated having to splice the cord from the Brake Control Unit to the GM supplied plug you get with the Trailering Package. Much more professional.
The only improvement would be to make it at least 6" longer. I placed the unit under the dash near the center of the dash and the cable just made it.
by: Michael07/21/2022
Hard to adjust. Had tech at rv place adjust still grabby. Should have got more modern controller

Was looking at another system and the website recommended another one (which is the one I bought) and included the additional wiring harness to plug directly into my vehicle. No wiring, just plug and play. One of the easiest and best setups I've ever done! Thank you for your help.

Do you have a question about this Trailer Brake Controller?
- Testing Brake Controller that Shows Low Output Voltage all the Time
- Sounds like it is possible that the brake controller has gone bad and needs to be replaced. you can test the controller pretty easily though to know for sure.
Testing the brake controller is fairly easy. Sever the blue brake output wire near the brake controller leaving enough room to reconnect it and then apply the manual slide. Using a circuit tester like part # PTW2993, you should get output to the controller side of the wire you severed. If the manual slide activates the trailer

If so, what you describe are the symptoms of an insufficient ground connection, likely where the driver's side taillight grounds to the trailer frame. Make sure that ground connection is securely made to clean bare metal on the trailer frame. Trailer lamps will pick up their ground connection either via it's mounting studs being in direct contact with the trailer frame or through a dedicated ground wire

- It is definitely not normal to be seeing 11.5 volts from the back of your Tekonsha Voyager # 39510 when you are not applying the brakes.
There is either an internal short in the trailer brake controller, or a short in the wiring to the 7-way connector.

- Brake controllers are universal items, so once wired properly they will work in any vehicle. This brake controller will work in your 2004 Dodge Ram. If you have a factory 7-way or 4-way tow package, you will have a connector under your dash to make wiring simpler. In this case, I would recommend part # 39510 and harness # 3020-P.
If you only have a 4 pole, you will also need to upgrade to a 7 way to make the connection to the trailer. You would use part # 37185 to adapt it.

- For your 2016 Toyota Tacoma TRD, I recommend the Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller # 39510 you asked from with the wiring harness # 3031-P. Vehicles without the factory tow package will require fuses and relays to activate the tow package but if you have the factory tow package this combination is all you need.
If you want a controller designed for on road and off road use, then I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR with the wiring harness

- With your Tekonsha Voyager Proportional Brake Controller, # 39510, there should not be a light illuminated when you are not connected to your trailer. The green LED on the top of your brake controller will illuminate when connected to a trailer to let you know that the trailer is connected and the brake controller is in use. I've attached a video that shows this.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Tekonsha Voyager Brake Controller When Brakes are Always Engaged
- It sounds to me like you have the red wire coming from the Tekonsha Voyager, # 39510, connected to the wrong wire under your dash. The red wire needs to connect to the cold side of the brake light switch which will only show power when the brake pedal is pressed. Use a circuit tester like # PTW2993. This causes your trailer brakes to engage when the pedal is pressed, and not all the time.

view full answer... - Brake Controller Recommendation for a 2004 Ford F-350 Diesel
- For your 2004 Ford F-350 diesel I recommend the P2 # 90885 with wiring harness # 3035-P. The P2 is one of our most popular brake controllers of all time because it is easy to set up and use and it is reliable.
This is a proportional controller that will apply the trailer brakes in proportion to how hard or soft the vehicle is braking. This reduces wear and tear on the trailer and vehicle brakes and is the safest way to stop.

- If the Green light is constantly on when you trailer is disconnected then you have a short on the Blue wire somewhere or it has been wired incorrectly. The Blue wire on the Tekonsha Voyager # 39510 is the wire that carries the signal from your brake controller to the 7-Way on your 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 to activate your trailer brakes. If you are using the Adapter # 3021-P to connect it to your Ram then the wiring is most likely shorted somewhere.

- If your Tekonsha Voyager Trailer Brake Controller # 39510 isn't powering on when connected to your vehicle the problem is either that the black wire isn't securely attached to a 12 volt power source or the white wire isn't grounding properly due to a bad ground source chosen or that the wire isn't making good contact. If it isn't grounding to the vehicle battery I would try that as well.

- As long as the P3 is in functioning order, the 3015-P is pinned properly and you installed it into the correct port under your dash the controller should have turned on and you should get a display reading.
