Tekonsha is a leading manufacturer of electronic trailer brake controllers, pioneering the category in the 1970s. The lineup spans proportional units such as the Prodigy P3 and Prodigy iD, time-delayed controllers, the wireless Prodigy RF, plus vehicle-specific wiring harnesses, adapters and trailer brake components engineered for smooth, predictable stopping at any speed.
Tekonsha Engineering Company began in 1964 building RV steps and mirrors. Within a few years it had found its real calling, and by the 1970s Tekonsha was pioneering the manufacture of electronic trailer brake controllers, the product category that still defines the brand. More than half a century later it remains the reference name in trailer braking and is part of the Horizon Global group alongside Reese, Draw-Tite, Fulton, Bulldog and Wesbar.
A brake controller is the component that tells a trailer's electric brakes how hard to work and when, and getting that right is the difference between a controlled stop and a shove from behind. Tekonsha builds both major types. Proportional controllers use an internal accelerometer to sense how quickly the tow vehicle is slowing and apply trailer braking to match, so light braking stays light and hard braking is immediate. Time-delayed controllers ramp to a preset output over a fixed interval, a simpler and more economical approach that suits occasional towing.
The current brake controller range covers most of that ground. The Prodigy iD pairs with a phone through Tekonsha's EDGE technology for setup and monitoring, the P3 offers storable settings for multiple trailers and a trilingual colour LED display, the Prodigy P2 adds a dimmable display and boost mode for heavier loads, and the Voyager keeps operation simple and dependable. The Prodigy RF mounts to the trailer itself and controls wirelessly, which suits rental fleets and drivers who swap tow vehicles.
Installation is supported by vehicle-specific brake control harnesses that plug into a factory connector rather than requiring cut-and-splice wiring, along with mounting brackets and adapters. Matched controller bundles pair a unit with the correct harness. Products are tested to meet and often exceed published industry standards.

The BRAKE mate is a trailer brake control system that allows you to control trailer brakes from your vehicle. It connects to your vehicle's electrical system and includes a brake control unit that mounts under the dash, circuit breakers for power management, and a prewired connector that attaches to your trailer.
The manual does not specify which vehicle makes, models, or years are compatible with the BRAKE mate. Contact Cequent Towing Products technical service at (888) 521-0510 or consult a fitment database to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle.
Yes. Step 4 of the installation instructions requires connecting the 4-pole flat connector to the vehicle's connector, which means your vehicle must already have a 4-pole flat connector. If your vehicle does not have one, the BRAKE mate cannot be installed using these instructions.
The kit includes: 1 prewired connector, 1 heavy duty flasher, 1 20 amp circuit breaker, 1 40 amp circuit breaker, 5 #10 G-ring connectors, 2 3/8" G-ring connectors, 5 Scotch locks, 8 self-tapping screws, and 6 wire tie straps.
The manual does not specify required tools. However, based on the installation steps, you will likely need a drill (to create a firewall hole if one does not exist), wire strippers, a screwdriver (for self-tapping screws), and possibly a crimper or pliers for ring connectors. Contact technical service at (888) 521-0510 for a complete tool list.
The manual does not specify whether the battery must be disconnected before installation. Contact Cequent Towing Products technical service at (888) 521-0510 for safety guidance before beginning work.
Mount the bracket for the round connector on the bumper if that is where you intend to install it. Some hitches have built-in brackets, so check your hitch first before mounting a separate bracket.
Mount the brake control unit under the dash onto something firm. The unit must be securely fastened to a solid surface.
Mount the 2 circuit breakers (20 amp and 40 amp) end to end on the firewall within reach of the BLUE/BLACK cable. Secure them with the self-tapping screws supplied in the kit.
You may need to drill a hole through the firewall to run the BLUE/BLACK 2-strand wire from the engine bay into the cab. Look for an existing spot first; if none is available, drill a hole and seal it with a rubber grommet or silicone to prevent water and debris from entering the cab.
Some hitch brackets may need to be cut to allow the various connectors to pass through. Check your specific hitch bracket during installation; if it blocks connector passage, you will need to cut it.
Yes. In step 9, you must cut the black wire to create two open ends. These ends are then fitted with ring connectors and attached to the 40 amp and 20 amp circuit breakers respectively.
WHITE = ground wire; BLUE/BLACK = 2-strand power and trailer brake wire (runs from rear connector to front of vehicle and through firewall); RED = power wire from brake control unit; BLUE = trailer brake wire from brake control unit; GREEN = wire from brake control unit to brake switch.
Connect the WHITE ground wire to the frame of the vehicle. This provides the ground connection for the system.
Run the BLUE/BLACK 2-strand wire along the frame rail to the front of the vehicle, avoiding the exhaust, axles, and brake cables. Secure it with the plastic tie straps supplied. Then run it up the firewall, avoiding the steering mechanism, and secure it with ties.
Split the BLUE/BLACK 2-strand wire down the middle. Connect the RED (power) wire of the brake control unit to the BLACK wire using a Scotch lock. Connect the BLUE (trailer brake) wire of the brake control unit to the BLUE wire using a Scotch lock. Connect the WHITE wire of the brake control unit to the ground on the vehicle body. Connect the GREEN wire of the brake control unit to the inactive side of the brake switch.
Run a heavy gauge wire from the battery or equivalent power source to the battery side of either circuit breaker. Attach a #10 G-ring connector to one end of the wire. Then split a wire off this main wire to the 20 amp breaker using a Scotch lock and attach a #10 G-ring connector to the end of this wire. Alternatively, you can run a jumper between the two breakers.
The circuit breakers protect the electrical system. The 40 amp breaker is connected to the auxiliary side of the wire going to the rear connector. The 20 amp breaker is connected to the auxiliary side of the wire going through the firewall to the brake control unit.
The heavy duty flasher is a replacement turn signal flasher. If your turn signals blink too fast after installation, replace your vehicle's original turn signal flasher with the one supplied in the kit.
After attaching the round connector with self-tapping screws, test the connector for: running lights, brake lights, turn signals, and hot wire (power). Note that the brake control output cannot be tested unless a trailer is connected to the connector.
If the turn signals are blinking too fast after installation, replace the turn signal flasher with the heavy duty flasher supplied in the BRAKE mate kit.
After drilling a hole through the firewall to run the BLUE/BLACK wire into the cab, seal the hole with a rubber grommet or silicone to prevent water and debris from entering the vehicle.
When running the BLUE/BLACK 2-strand wire along the frame rail and up the firewall, avoid the exhaust, axles, brake cables, and steering mechanism. These components can damage the wire or be damaged by it. Secure the wire with the supplied plastic tie straps.
Your vehicle must have a 4-pole flat connector. Contact Cequent Towing Products at (888) 521-0510 or check a fitment database to confirm compatibility with your specific make, model, and year.
The kit includes a prewired connector, brake control unit, 20 amp and 40 amp circuit breakers, 5 #10 G-ring connectors, 2 3/8" G-ring connectors, 5 Scotch locks, 8 self-tapping screws, 6 wire tie straps, and a heavy duty flasher.
You may need to drill a hole through the firewall to run the brake wire into the cab if an existing hole is not available. The hole must be sealed with a rubber grommet or silicone.
Connect WHITE (ground) to frame, RED (power) to BLACK wire, BLUE (trailer brake) to BLUE wire, GREEN to brake switch, and run BLUE/BLACK from rear connector through firewall to brake control unit.
Test for running lights, brake lights, turn signals, and hot wire (power). Brake control output cannot be tested without a trailer connected. If turn signals blink too fast, replace the flasher with the one supplied.
Avoid routing the BLUE/BLACK wire near the exhaust, axles, brake cables, or steering mechanism. Secure all wires with the supplied plastic tie straps.
The T-One T-Connector is a wiring harness that integrates trailer lighting into a Honda Accord's factory taillight system. It uses a T-shaped connector design that taps into the vehicle's existing taillight wiring on both driver and passenger sides, allowing you to connect a trailer without modifying the vehicle's original electrical system. The system includes a black converter box module, a 4-flat connector for the trailer, and integrated fusing.
Yes, the T-One T-Connector (118776-037) is designed for Honda Accord. The manual does not specify which model years or trim levels are compatible, so contact the manufacturer or your installer to confirm fitment for your specific vehicle year and configuration.
You will need: trim panel remover, 10mm socket and ratchet or 10mm wrench, drill with 3/32" drill bit, 1/4" socket, wire crimpers, wire cutters, Phillips head screwdriver, and test probe. A test light or trailer is also recommended for final verification of the installation.
The T-Connector includes: two T-Connector ends (one with yellow wire for driver's side, one with green wire for passenger's side), a black 12 gauge power wire, a white ground wire with eyelet and screw, a yellow fuse holder with 15 amp fuse, a yellow butt connector, a black converter box module, a 4-flat connector, cable ties, and a ring terminal for battery connection.
Yes. You must disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable before connecting the power wire to the positive battery terminal. The manual specifies this in Step 11. After all wiring connections are complete, you reconnect the negative cable and install the 15 amp fuse.
1. Locate the plastic cover between the taillights and trunk opening on each side and use a trim panel puller to carefully remove it. 2. Remove the bolts holding the taillights (2 per side) using a Phillips head screwdriver or 10mm socket. 3. Carefully pull the taillights away from the vehicle without damaging the alignment pins. 4. From inside the trunk, temporarily remove the rear threshold plate and partially remove the felt trunk liner. 5. Locate the grommet between the taillight pocket and trunk, pull the taillight wire harness, unseat the grommet, and disconnect the vehicle wiring harness from both taillight sockets. 6. Remove the taillight housing and set aside.
On the driver's side: insert the T-Connector end with the yellow wire between the vehicle wiring connectors and lock into place, being careful not to damage the locking tabs and ensuring connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs engaged. On the passenger's side: route the T-Connector end with the green wire behind the panels and along the threshold, then plug it between the mating plugs on the passenger's side taillight socket and vehicle wiring harness. Both connections must be fully seated and locked.
Yes. You must drill one 3/32" hole on the driver's side to secure the white ground wire. Locate a suitable grounding point near the connector such as the vehicle's frame or crossmember (do not drill into the vehicle floor or bed). Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area, drill the 3/32" hole, and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided. Always verify what is behind any surface before drilling to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury.
The T-One T-Connector uses a 15 amp fuse. This fuse is installed in the yellow fuse holder provided and must be installed in Step 12 after all wiring connections are complete and the vehicle battery negative cable is reconnected.
The T-Connector uses the following wires: yellow wire (driver's side taillight connection), green wire (passenger's side taillight connection), black 12 gauge power wire (connects to vehicle positive battery terminal through the fuse holder), and white wire (ground connection to vehicle frame or crossmember). The yellow fuse holder and yellow butt connector are also part of the electrical system.
Locate the black 12 gauge power wire from the T-Connector box on the driver's side. Route the black wire along the exterior frame or follow existing wiring along the thresholds into the engine compartment up to the battery, avoiding areas that may pinch or break the wire. If routing through a grommet and along the exterior of the vehicle, carefully avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, or any other points that may pinch or break the wire.
After disconnecting the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable, attach the ring terminal (provided) to the vehicle's positive (+) battery cable. Connect the other end of the yellow fuse holder to the black 12 gauge wire using the yellow butt connector provided. The fuse holder should be positioned between the battery positive terminal and the black power wire. Install the 15 amp fuse into the fuse holder after all connections are complete and the negative battery cable is reconnected.
On the driver's side, locate a suitable grounding point near the connector such as the vehicle's frame or crossmember (do not drill into the vehicle floor or bed). Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area. Drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided. This creates the ground connection for the system.
Always wear safety glasses and use all safety precautions during installation. Before drilling, verify what is behind any surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury. Do not drill into the vehicle floor, bed, or any exposed surfaces. When routing wires, avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, or any points that may pinch or break the wire. Read and follow all warnings and cautions printed on the tow vehicle's battery. Do not exceed the stated product ratings or the lower of the towing manufacturer rating or specific amperage ratings on the product.
All connections must be complete for the T-One T-Connector to function properly. Test and verify the installation with a test light or trailer once installed. For the initial test, reset the vehicle electrical system by temporarily removing the key from the ignition. This ensures all connections are working correctly before using the connector with a trailer.
Locate a flat surface in an out-of-the-way place and mount the T-One T-Connector's black box module to prevent damage or rattling. Secure the remainder of the T-One T-Connector harness with the cable ties provided to prevent damage or rattling, being careful to avoid any areas that would pinch, cut, or melt the wire.
Store the 4-flat connector in the trunk area when not in use.
The manual does not specify the amperage rating of the T-Connector itself. You must not exceed the lower of the towing manufacturer rating (including in your vehicle owner's manual) or the specific amperage ratings stated on the product. Refer to the product label and your vehicle's owner's manual for the exact rating.
Trim panel remover, 10mm socket/wrench, 3/32" drill bit, 1/4" socket, wire crimpers, wire cutters, Phillips screwdriver, and test probe.
Yes, one 3/32" hole is required on the driver's side for the ground wire. Always verify what is behind the surface before drilling.
Yes, disconnect the negative battery cable before connecting the power wire to the positive terminal. Reconnect it after all wiring is complete and the 15 amp fuse is installed.
15 amp fuse, installed in the yellow fuse holder provided.
Yellow wire (driver's side), green wire (passenger's side), black 12 gauge (power), and white (ground).
Test with a test light or trailer once all connections are complete. Reset the vehicle electrical system by temporarily removing the ignition key.
Do not exceed the lower of the towing manufacturer rating (in your vehicle owner's manual) or the specific amperage ratings on the product. Check the product label for exact specifications.
Verify that all connections are complete. The manual states that all connections must be complete for the T-One T-Connector to function properly. Check that: (1) the yellow wire T-Connector end is fully inserted and locked on the driver's side, (2) the green wire T-Connector end is fully inserted and locked on the passenger's side, (3) the white ground wire is securely attached to the frame, (4) the black power wire is connected to the positive battery terminal through the fuse holder and ring terminal, (5) the 15 amp fuse is installed in the fuse holder, and (6) the negative battery cable is reconnected. Test and verify the installation with a test light or trailer. For initial test, reset the vehicle electrical system by temporarily removing the key from the ignition.
The manual warns to be careful not to damage the locking tabs and to ensure that connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. If locking tabs are damaged, the connector will not lock securely and the system will not function properly. If connectors are not fully inserted, disconnect them and reinsert them carefully, ensuring they are fully seated before the locking tabs engage. If locking tabs are broken, the connector end may need to be replaced.
