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 2010-2019 KIA Soul Tekonsha Plug & Play T-Connector Adapter Trailer Wiring 118637 (Part #TK118637) Drilling is required for installation. Basic hand tools are typically all you need.
Yes, the T-One® T-Connector part number 118637-037 is designed for the Kia Soul. The installation involves connecting to the taillight wiring harness on both the driver and passenger sides of the vehicle.
You will need: a trim panel remover, a drill with a 3/32" drill bit, a Phillips head screwdriver, and a test probe. These tools are required to remove taillight housings, drill the ground wire hole, remove fasteners, and test the electrical connections.
Yes. You must disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable before connecting the power wires to the battery. The negative cable is reconnected in step 9 after the fuse holder is installed. Always read and follow all warnings printed on the vehicle's battery.
Yes. You must drill a 3/32" hole near the taillight connector to secure the white ground wire using the supplied eyelet and screw. Do not drill into the vehicle floor, bed, or any exposed surfaces. Always verify what is behind the surface before drilling to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury.
The T-Connector uses the following wires: yellow wire (driver-side taillight connector), green wire (passenger-side taillight connector and routing), white wire (ground connection to vehicle body), black 12 ga. wire (negative/ground from battery), and red wire (positive from battery). The yellow and green wires connect between the vehicle's taillight harness connectors. The white wire is grounded to the vehicle body. The black and red wires connect to the vehicle battery through a 10 amp fuse holder.
A 10 amp fuse is installed in the yellow fuse holder. The fuse is removed during step 8 when connecting the power wires to the battery, and then reinstalled in step 9 after the negative battery cable is reconnected.
1. Remove the three screws from each taillight housing and carefully pull the taillights away from the vehicle. 2. Locate the taillight wiring harness connectors on both sides. 3. On the driver's side, insert the T-Connector end with the yellow wire between the vehicle's taillight connectors and lock into place, ensuring the locking tabs are fully engaged. 4. On the passenger's side, repeat the process using the T-Connector end with the green wire. Ensure all connector surfaces are clean and free of dirt before connecting.
Route the harness containing the green wire and the 4-flat connector down the opening behind the taillight on the driver's side. Route the harness containing the green wire underneath the vehicle and up through the opening behind the passenger's side taillight. The black 12 ga. wire and red wire can either be routed through a grommet along the exterior frame, or follow existing wiring along the thresholds into the engine compartment up to the battery. Avoid areas that may pinch or break the wire.
Locate a suitable grounding point near the taillight connector. Clean dirt and rustproofing from the area. Drill a 3/32" hole and secure the white wire using the supplied eyelet and screw. Do not drill into the vehicle floor, bed, or any exposed surfaces.
1. Disconnect the vehicle's negative (-) battery cable. 2. Remove the fuse from the yellow fuse holder if not already removed. 3. Cut the fuse holder wire and attach the ring terminal to the vehicle's positive (+) battery cable. 4. Connect the other end of the fuse holder to the black 12 ga. wire using the supplied yellow butt connector. 5. Connect the black 12 ga. wire and red wire from the T-Connector black box using the supplied yellow butt connector. 6. Route these wires through a grommet along the exterior frame or follow existing wiring to the battery, avoiding hot pipes, heat shields, and the fuel tank.
Locate a flat surface in an out-of-the-way place inside the vehicle and mount the black box module to prevent damage or rattling. The exact location is at your discretion, but it should be secure and protected from impact.
Secure the remainder of the harness with the cable ties provided to prevent damage or rattling. Be careful to avoid any areas that would pinch, cut, or melt the wire. This includes routing away from hot surfaces and sharp edges.
Mount the 4-flat connector end in an accessible location using a bracket or electrical box (not included with the product). Choose a location that is easy to reach when connecting or disconnecting a trailer.
All connections must be complete before testing. Test and verify the installation using a test light or by connecting an actual trailer once installed. For the initial test, reset the vehicle's electrical system by temporarily removing the key from the ignition. This ensures all connections are functioning properly before towing.
The manual does not specify the amperage rating of the T-One® T-Connector. However, you must not exceed the lower of either the towing manufacturer's rating (as stated in your vehicle's owner's manual) or the specific amperage ratings stated on the product itself. Check the product label for the exact amperage specification.
Always wear safety glasses during installation. Read and follow all warnings and cautions printed on the vehicle's battery. Do not exceed the product's stated amperage ratings or the towing manufacturer's rating, as overloading circuits can cause fires. When routing wires, avoid hot pipes, heat shields, the fuel tank, and any areas that may pinch or break the wire. Verify what is behind any surface before drilling to avoid damage to the vehicle or personal injury.
You need to remove the taillight housing enough to access the wiring connectors. Remove the three screws from each taillight housing and carefully pull the taillights away from the vehicle, being careful not to damage the alignment pins. After connecting the T-Connector, reinstall the taillight housing assemblies, positioning the vehicle wiring harness between the housing and the vehicle body.
Yes, part 118637-037 is designed for the Kia Soul. Installation connects to the taillight wiring harness on both sides of the vehicle.
Yes, disconnect the negative (-) battery cable before connecting the power wires. Reconnect it after the fuse holder is installed in step 9.
A 10 amp fuse is installed in the yellow fuse holder. It is removed during battery connection and reinstalled after the negative cable is reconnected.
Test using a test light or by connecting a trailer. Reset the vehicle's electrical system by temporarily removing the ignition key. All connections must be complete before testing.
Do not exceed the lower of the towing manufacturer's rating (in your vehicle's owner's manual) or the specific amperage rating stated on the product. Check the product label for the exact specification.
