The Tekonsha Brakeman IV digital trailer brake controller provides safety and connection when you need it most. As a time-based controller, the Brakeman IV is a great choice for basic, light-duty towing needs. This compact controller works by electronically connecting your vehicle and your trailer. When you hit the brakes in your tow vehicle, it generates an output signal that ramps up, or increases over a period of time, applying braking power to your trailer at a fixed rate. The Brakeman IV has up-front buttons so you can easily adjust power output, the sync ? or aggressiveness with which the controller applies the brakes, and engage manual override to help you brake safely when an unexpected stop pops up. It also works with electric or electric over hydraulic braking systems, and features advanced internal circuit protection, real time comprehensive diagnostics, and short circuit protection. Because the Brakeman IV is a time-based controller, there?s no requirement that it be positioned in the direction of travel; it can be installed anywhere you like as long as it is within reach of the driver. Plus, the Plug & Play feature allows for quick and easy connection with your vehicle?s wiring. The Brakeman IV trailer brake controller works with1-4 axle trailers, comes with all the mounting hardware needed for installation, and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

Reese Towpower delivers the towing hardware most drivers reach for: receiver hitches across multiple classes, ball mounts, hitch balls, pins, clips, safety chains, wiring and hitch accessories. Backed by a towing pedigree dating to 1952, the line uses all-welded construction and corrosion-resistant finishes, with custom-fit hitches matched to vehicle make, model and year.
The Reese story starts in 1952, when Margaret Reese challenged her husband TJ to do something about travel trailers rocking whenever anyone walked through them. A few years later he built the first pair of stabilising jacks. The idea was simple and it worked, and it changed how the RV industry thought about trailer stability. From that beginning the Reese name grew into a full towing line covering fifth wheel hitches, pin boxes, weight distribution systems and accessories, and Reese Towpower carries that engineering into the products most owners buy off the shelf.
Receiver trailer hitches anchor the range, offered across the classes needed for everything from a small utility trailer to livestock and job-site loads. Construction is all-welded rather than bolted at the stress points, and each hitch is tested against published standards for strength and safety. Custom-fit hitches are engineered to the vehicle manufacturer's weight specifications for a given model and model year, so mounting points line up with existing frame holes and the finished installation sits where it should. Exclusive paint finishes resist rust and corrosion through years of road salt, and hitches carry a nationwide limited lifetime warranty.
No towing setup is complete without the connecting hardware, and Reese Towpower covers it comprehensively. Ball mounts come in fixed, adjustable and specialty forms with a range of rises and drops to level a trailer properly. Hitch balls are offered in the standard diameters and shank sizes, matched to coupler and load rating.
The towing accessories line fills in everything else: hitch pins and clips, locks, receiver tube covers, and safety chains rated to the load being pulled. For most drivers this is where a towing purchase actually begins, and having the whole chain of components from one engineering source keeps ratings consistent end to end.

Yes. You must locate the vehicle's battery, disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable before beginning installation. Do not touch the negative battery terminal to the positive battery terminal, as this can cause serious injury and damage to the vehicle's electrical system.
Always wear safety glasses during installation. Locate and disconnect the vehicle's negative battery cable, then isolate it. Do not touch the negative battery terminal to the positive battery terminal, as serious injury and vehicle electrical system damage can occur. Read and follow all warnings and instructions printed on the vehicle's battery. Ensure all existing ground connections remain attached after installation.
1. Locate the vehicle's electric brake control harness connector. Remove the driver's side kick panel. You will find a 4-pin connector that mates with the brake control harness taped to another vehicle harness. Connect the brake control harness into the vehicle's connector, being careful not to break the locking tabs. 2. Plug the brake control adapter into the vehicle's electric controller connector. 3. Complete the installation per the electric brake control manufacturer's instructions and mount the unit as directed. Perform test procedures as instructed.
The electric brake control harness connector is located behind the driver's side kick panel. You will need to remove this panel to access the 4-pin connector that mates with the brake control harness.
When connecting the brake control harness to the vehicle's connector, be careful not to break the locking tabs on the connector. These tabs secure the connection and must remain intact for proper operation.
The maximum rating is 24 amps for a maximum of 4 axles with 8 brakes. Do not exceed the lower of the towing manufacturer rating (including in your vehicle owner's manual) or this specific amperage rating, as overloading circuits can cause fires.
The 3081 is rated for a maximum of 4 axles with 8 brakes at 24 amps. Do not exceed this rating or the lower of your vehicle's towing manufacturer rating as stated in your vehicle owner's manual. Exceeding these ratings can cause circuit overload and fires.
Vehicles not equipped with an OEM trailer tow package may require fuses and relays to complete the output and battery feed circuits. These are sold separately. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual for the locations of these components.
Torque the existing ground screw to the manufacturer's torque specifications. The manual does not provide a specific torque value; you should refer to the vehicle manufacturer's specifications or contact Horizon Global technical support at 800-632-3290 for the correct value.
The brake control system uses a black wire for battery voltage (which should read 12–14 volts) and a white wire for ground. These are the key wires to verify during testing and troubleshooting.
The black wire should measure 12–14 volts when the system is operating correctly. If you do not see this voltage, verify the battery voltage connection to the black wire.
The white wire is the ground wire. You should verify that it has a proper ground connection. If the system shows a 'Brake Control Open Ground Notification', check the connection to ground on the white wire of the power module.
No. You must use a Tekonsha-approved test light or tester. Using some other test lights or non-Tekonsha testers can cause a false 'Brake Control Short Notification' and lead to incorrect troubleshooting.
This notification indicates one of several possible issues: the trailer is disconnected from the tow vehicle, the trailer connection is dirty or corroded, the trailer or tow vehicle connector is miswired, there is an open electric brake control wire, or there is a loss of ground to the brake magnets. To resolve this: depress the brake pedal or use the manual override; verify the connection from the power module to the dash module; verify the connection to the power module and vehicle; verify battery voltage to the black wire (should be 12–14 volts); and verify ground on the white wire.
This notification indicates that the power module has detected a brake wire short to ground. Possible causes include use of some test lights or non-Tekonsha testers, a short in the 7-way connector between brake outputs and other terminals, or an electric brake wire on the tow vehicle or trailer that is shorted out. To resolve this: use only a Tekonsha-approved test light or tester; inspect and repair the trailer connector if needed; and inspect and repair or replace the electric brake wire.
This notification indicates that the power module has lost its connection to the vehicle battery ground while the trailer is connected. To resolve this, check the connection to ground on the white wire of the power module and ensure it is secure.
This notification indicates an electrical overload condition. Possible causes include a defective brake magnet, an intermittent short on the electric brake wire or bare wire, or a thermal overload condition reducing braking power. To resolve this: locate and replace any defective brake magnet; locate and repair any faulty brake wire; and decrease the electrical load on the system. If the issue is thermal overload, reduce the braking power demand.
This notification indicates an internal error with the brake controller itself. Contact the brake control manufacturer's technical support for assistance, as this is not a field-serviceable issue. Note that functional codes may differ per manufacturer, so refer to the instructions supplied with your specific brake control unit.
After installation, perform all test procedures as instructed by the electric brake control manufacturer. Verify that the power module is properly connected to the dash module and to the vehicle, check that battery voltage to the black wire reads 12–14 volts, and verify that the white wire has a proper ground connection. Ensure all existing ground connections remain attached and torque the existing ground screw to manufacturer specifications.
