REDARC Tow-Pro Elite Electric Trailer Brake Controller Kit – Dual Braking Modes, Active Calibration, Inertia Sensing, Manual Override for Trailer Sway, Compatible with 12V/24V Systems

This brake controller was designed and built with the consumer in mind. The design of the materials makes it suitable for so many vehicle applications, it could very well be the best option on the market. Whether you’ve got a large load, or you’re like me and have a smaller SUV with a bent towards towing in off-road and technical situations, this controller was built excel in all these applications.RedArc included parts necessary to install the brake controller potentiometer (the small control knob) and the module wherever you see fit! Do you have a standard rectangular switch slot open in your dash? They included parts to fit it right in. Otherwise, if you’re like me, and you are looking for something that is as unobtrusive as possible, but still just as functional AND feature rich as any brake controller on the market, then this is for you! The module will install in any orientation tucked behind dash trim and and the knob can be placed with little to know foot print taken out of your dash. It’s a great product that I am extremely happy with. Easy to install, SUPER easy to setup and operate, and is a totally unobtrusive setup for any vehicle application.For installation into my 2018 Jeep Wrangler JLUR, I grabbed some super thin half inch wide / maybe an eighth inch thick aluminum flat bar for about $3, cut it to about 6-8 inches and was able to mount the controller to that bar, and a cross member under my dash trim underneath my steering wheel, and bend it to an odd orientation so it fit tucked away back in my dash, and the module self calibrated even in the orientation shown in the picture. This was a more cost effective and versatile solution than the optional RedArc mounting kit ($25 for a small bar and some screws was more than I could bare, so I went to Home Depot and saved about $20). Then I drilled an ever so small hole in my dash trim to install the control knob. Super simple. Just grab the correct wiring harnesses and you’re off to the races!Great product, I highly recommend.

Unit arrived well packaged, no defects. Also includes the little mount to make it appear OEM.Install was simple, even with the universal wire pigtail. Took about 1.5 hours because I couldn’t decide where to put the hole.All wires hidden, and no box in your knees. Couldn’t ask for more.

I have a 2023 Subaru Ascent with pre wired brake controller for the OEM tow package. This was great to use for it. You can mount the box in any orientation as long as it won’t move. It will train itself for a while and you are good to go. There was a blank button on the dash and once I popped it out and dremmeled out the inside, making sure to try and fit it each time I cut a little more. It fit perfectly inside it. Ran the wire down to the box and it looks almost OEM and no dash mods or drilling needed for me.

This controller is great.I got this to install in my RV. It's small enough to easily tuck under the dash. Just make sure it's in a good place to mount tightly so it doesn't move around.The adjustment knob is also small and if you take your time with the install, it looks like it belongs in the dash.It's pretty much set and forget it. The controller learn your driving habits and does the fine tuning so you almost can't tell you are towing anything.I'm thinking about replacing the controller in my truck with one of these.

Super easy to install. I bought the vehicle specific wiring harness, so installation was basically plug and play. I used double sided tape and ty-wraps to attach the main control box to a solid mounting point behind the dash. Then, I modified the coinholder next to my upfitter switches (in the pics) to mount the control knob. It's a very clean and easy way to install a trailer brake controller. So much better than the old style, where the entire unit is mounted to the dash somewhere. They always seem to get in the way.As for the operation, this controller is very easy to set up and use. no issues at all. Great purchase

The model truck I bought did not come factory with the brake controller. This model is great and has a very small knob you can mount most places and may never have to use since you can set up the proportional braking.I didn’t test the proportional braking as much as I would have liked. Worked well from what I could tell. I am old fashioned and often prefer adjusting manually.Box for the controller mounts easily. My Chevy came with the plug end to directly connect to the controller and use a factory plug. If you do not have this plug I suggest you buy the OEM style plug to keep a factory look. Otherwise, you’ll need to splice into existing wires. This is vehicle specific no brake controller I know of comes with the factory plugs, so no fault to Redarc here.Knob worked well. LED function easy enough to understand. Read the manual and you’ll catch right on.My ONLY complaint: It is hard to press and adjust the force applied (similar to the pinching style most controllers are). This is a disadvantage of the knob, but that’s also the reason I bought it - the knob is small and fits well where I was putting it.THE BEST PART IS THE OBVIOUS PART! This controller mounts remotely from the button/knob. Less dash space and less smacking your knees into it. These style controllers are the best factory look you can install IMO.

Installed using the TPSI-002 snap in tab . Fit right in no drilling. A piece of cake.Install looks like factory .Would recommend 100%

This think is amazing for my jeep and offroad camping trailer. Install takes time but I love it.
