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.

Yes, this T-Connector is designed for the Dodge Journey AVP/CVP. The manual provides installation instructions specific to this vehicle model. If you have a different model year or trim level, verify compatibility before purchasing.
The kit includes the T-Connector harness with yellow and green wire ends, a black box module, a 4-Flat connector, double-sided tape, cable ties, a fuse holder with a 10 amp fuse, a white eyelet and screw for grounding, and yellow butt connectors. The 4-Flat connector bracket or electrical box is not included and must be sourced separately.
Required tools are: trim panel remover, Phillips head screwdriver, drill with 3/32" bit, 10 mm socket or wrench, 1/4" socket, and test probe. You will also need a test light or trailer to verify the installation after completion.
Yes. You must disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable before connecting the fuse holder to the positive battery cable in step 7. The battery is reconnected in step 9 after all other connections are complete.
Open the tailgate and remove the right side taillight assembly by removing the two clips holding it in place. Carefully pry the housing away from the vehicle, being careful not to break the alignment tabs. Repeat the same procedure for the left side taillight assembly.
On the driver's side, insert the T-Connector end with the yellow wire between the vehicle wiring connectors and lock into place. On the passenger's side, insert the T-Connector end with the green wire between the vehicle wiring connectors and lock into place. Ensure all locking tabs are fully engaged and connectors are fully inserted.
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 underneath and 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. Route all wires carefully to avoid hot pipes, heat shields, fuel tank, and any points that may pinch or break the wire.
Yes. You must drill a 3/32" hole on the driver's side near the taillight connectors to secure the white ground wire with the eyelet and screw provided. Before drilling, verify what is behind the surface to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury. Do not drill into any exposed surfaces.
The power wire is 12 gauge (12 ga.) black wire. The fuse rating is 10 amps. The fuse holder is provided with the kit and must be connected between the vehicle's positive (+) battery cable and the black 12 ga. wire using the yellow butt connector provided.
Disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable first. Remove the fuse from the yellow fuse holder if not already removed. 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 10 amp fuse is installed after all other connections are complete.
Route the black 12 ga. wire from the engine compartment to the rear driver's side of the vehicle. Connect the other end of the black wire to the red power wire located on the T-Connector's black box using the yellow butt connector provided.
Mount the T-Connector black box on the driver's side using the double-sided tape provided. The epoxy side of the module must point toward the ground to prevent water buildup. Secure the remainder of the T-Connector harness with the cable ties provided to prevent damage, rattling, and to avoid areas that would cut or pinch the wire.
Mount the 4-Flat connector end in an accessible location using a bracket or electrical box. The bracket or electrical box is not included with the kit and must be sourced separately.
Reinstall the taillight housing assemblies, positioning the vehicle wiring harness between the housing and the vehicle body. Ensure the T-Connector ends are properly seated in the vehicle connectors before reinstalling the taillight housings.
All connections must be complete before testing. 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. Reconnect the key and test all trailer light functions.
Do 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. The kit includes a 10 amp fuse. Overloading circuits can cause fires. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual and the product documentation for the specific amperage rating.
Always wear safety glasses during installation. Read and follow all warnings and cautions printed on the vehicle's battery before working with electrical connections. Route all wires carefully to avoid hot pipes, heat shields, fuel tank, and pinch points. Verify what is behind any surface before drilling. Do not drill into exposed surfaces.
Yes. When you separate the vehicle's taillight wiring connectors, ensure all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt before inserting the T-Connector ends. This ensures proper electrical contact.
Be careful not to damage the locking tabs when inserting the T-Connector ends. Ensure connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. If tabs are difficult to engage, do not force them; check that the connector is properly aligned before pushing it fully into place.
Yes, the T-Connector (118567-037) is designed for Dodge Journey AVP/CVP models. Verify your vehicle trim level matches before purchasing.
You need: trim panel remover, Phillips screwdriver, drill with 3/32" bit, 10 mm socket/wrench, 1/4" socket, test probe, and a test light or trailer for verification.

The kit uses a 10 amp fuse. Do not exceed the lower of your vehicle's towing rating or the product's amperage rating to prevent circuit overload and fire risk.
Test with a test light or trailer after all connections are complete. Reset the vehicle electrical system by temporarily removing the ignition key, then reconnect and verify all trailer light functions work.
Route all wires away from hot pipes, heat shields, and fuel tank to prevent pinching or breaking. Do not exceed the vehicle's towing rating or product amperage rating. Wear safety glasses and verify what is behind surfaces before drilling.
First, verify that all connections are complete and properly seated. Disconnect the vehicle's negative battery cable. Check that the T-Connector ends are fully inserted into the vehicle connectors with locking tabs engaged. Verify that all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt. Check that the 10 amp fuse is installed in the fuse holder. Verify that the black power wire is securely connected to the red power wire on the T-Connector black box using the yellow butt connector. Verify that the white ground wire is securely fastened to the grounding point. Reconnect the battery and test again. If lights still do not work, the vehicle's taillight wiring may have an issue unrelated to the T-Connector installation.
Do not force the connectors. First, verify that you are inserting the correct T-Connector end into the correct vehicle connector (yellow wire end on driver's side, green wire end on passenger's side). Ensure the vehicle connector is fully separated from the original connector. Check that both the T-Connector end and the vehicle connector are clean and free of dirt or debris. Align the connectors carefully and push firmly until the locking tabs engage. If the tabs still will not engage, the connectors may be misaligned or damaged; do not proceed with installation until the issue is resolved.
A repeatedly blown fuse indicates an electrical short circuit or overload. Disconnect the vehicle's negative battery cable immediately. Do not reinstall the fuse. Check that the black power wire is not pinched, cut, or damaged anywhere along its route from the battery to the T-Connector black box. Verify that the black wire is not touching any hot pipes, heat shields, or metal surfaces that could cause a short. Check that the yellow butt connectors are properly crimped and making good contact. If the wire or connectors are damaged, they must be replaced before the system can be used. If no damage is found, there may be an internal fault in the T-Connector module; contact the manufacturer.
