RacerX Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Looking for recommendations on a brake controller and install. Anybody have opinions on what's good out there and what's bad? I have heard it is semi-pre wired. The wires are there, just have to find them and connect under dash and under hood. Not as easy as the last 2001 Suburban plug and play. Anyone heard of any deals on installation, like a "Buy it here and we will install for $20" or anything similar? Thanks.... :xmas4: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indasand Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I think if you buy one for your make and model of vehicle (and the amount of axels on your trailer) They are all pretty easy to install.... Easy enough not to pay someone to do it.. Too bad your so far away I'd watch you do it for a six pack, i mean help you do it... LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RacerX Posted December 22, 2007 Author Share Posted December 22, 2007 Thanks Brian, your cheap, everybody else I've talked to is a 12 pak minimum..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ntrsandman Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Tekonsha Prodigy. Easy adjustments. Up to 3 axles. Inertia system so it wont lock up the trailer brakes all the time like the cheap ones. About 120 bucks. http://www.tekonsha.com/prodig.html You spent alot on your rv. Would you trust it to a cheap controller? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quicksilver Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 I'll second the recommendation on the Prodigy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RacerX Posted December 24, 2007 Author Share Posted December 24, 2007 Put in the Prodigy yesterday, simple, spent about an hour and a half (ran out of connectors), works great. Thanks for the input... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
