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 T-Connector is a wiring adapter that allows you to connect a trailer to your Chrysler Town & Country. It intercepts the vehicle's taillight signals and provides a 4-Flat connector for the trailer harness. The adapter includes a black box module that manages the electrical connection and includes a fuse holder for circuit protection.
Yes, this T-Connector is designed for the Chrysler Town & Country. The manual does not specify model years, so contact the manufacturer or your installer to confirm compatibility with your specific year and configuration.
You will need: Torx-30 screwdriver, trim panel remover, 10 mm socket and ratchet (or 10 mm wrench), drill with 3/32" bit, 1/4" socket, wire crimpers, wire cutters, Phillips head screwdriver, and a test probe. Safety glasses are also required.
The kit includes two T-Connector adapters (one with yellow wire for driver's side, one with green wire for passenger's side), a 4-Flat connector harness, a black box module, a white ground wire with eyelet and screw, a black 12 ga. power wire, a yellow fuse holder with 10 amp fuse, a yellow butt connector, double-sided tape, and cable ties.
No. The manual states that the 4-Flat connector end should be mounted in an accessible location with a bracket or electrical box, but notes that these are "not included." You will need to source these separately.
Yes. You must disconnect and isolate the vehicle's negative battery terminal before connecting the power wire to the positive battery terminal. This is done in Step 7. After the fuse holder is connected to the positive terminal, you reconnect the negative cable and install the 10 amp fuse.
Yes. You must open the rear tailgate and remove the T-30 Torx screws holding the taillight housings in place, then carefully pry the housings rearward away from the vehicle. Be careful not to break the alignment tabs. The taillight assemblies are reinstalled at the end of the installation.
On the driver's side, separate the vehicle's wiring connectors carefully (do not break the locking tabs). Insert the T-Connector end with the yellow wire between the vehicle wiring connectors and lock into place. Ensure connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs engaged. Repeat this process on the passenger's side using the T-Connector with the green wire.
Route the harness containing the green wire and 4-Flat connector down the opening behind the taillight on the driver's side. Route the 4-Flat harness to the center of the vehicle. Route the harness containing the green wire underneath the vehicle and up through the opening behind the passenger's side taillight. Mount the 4-Flat end in an accessible location with a bracket or electrical box (not included).
Route wires carefully to avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, or any other points that may pinch or break the wire. The manual emphasizes this warning twice—once for the green wire harness and again for the black power wire. Avoid areas where wires could be cut or pinched during reassembly.
Yes. You must drill a 3/32" hole to secure the white ground wire. Before drilling, verify what is behind the surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury. Do not drill into any exposed surfaces. Secure the white wire using the eyelet and screw provided.
The T-Connector uses a 10 amp fuse. This fuse is installed in the yellow fuse holder (provided) after the fuse holder is connected to the vehicle's positive battery terminal. The fuse protects the circuit from overload.
The T-Connector includes: yellow wire (driver's side T-Connector adapter for taillight signal), green wire (passenger's side T-Connector adapter for taillight signal), white wire (ground connection to vehicle frame), and black 12 ga. wire (power connection from vehicle battery). The 4-Flat connector harness carries the trailer signals to the trailer.
Locate the black 12 ga. power wire from the T-Connector box on the driver's side. Attach the black 12 ga. wire provided. Route it through the opening in the taillight socket, behind the bumper, along the exterior frame or following existing wiring along the thresholds into the engine compartment up to the battery. After disconnecting the negative battery terminal, remove the fuse from the yellow fuse holder, cut the fuse holder wire, attach the ring terminal, and secure it to the vehicle's positive (+) battery cable. Connect the other end of the fuse holder to the black 12 ga. wire using the yellow butt connector provided.
The yellow butt connector (provided) is used to connect the fuse holder to the black 12 ga. power wire. This connection is made after the fuse holder's ring terminal is secured to the vehicle's positive battery cable.
Do not exceed the lower of the towing manufacturer's rating or: maximum 2 stop/turn lights per side (4.2 amps total per side) and maximum tail lights (7.5 amps). Overloading the circuit can cause fires. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual and instruction sheet for additional information.
Mount the T-Connector black box on the driver's side using the double-sided tape provided. The epoxy side of the module must be pointed toward the ground to prevent water buildup. Secure the remainder of the harness with the cable ties provided to prevent damage, rattling, and to avoid areas that would cut or pinch the wire.
Test the installation with a test light or trailer. All connections must be complete for the T-Connector to function properly. This test should be performed before the taillight assemblies are fully reinstalled.
Reinstall the taillight assemblies and other items removed during installation, being careful not to pinch or cut the wires. Ensure all connections are secure and the T-Connector functions properly with a test light or trailer before considering the installation complete.
This T-Connector is designed for the Chrysler Town & Country. Confirm your specific model year with the manufacturer or installer before purchasing.
