User questions & answers

Question:	Does this fit a 2013 ram 3500 slt
Answer:	The CURT applies trailer brakes in accordance with vehicle deceleration. Built in accelerometers sense deceleration and apply trailer brakes according to the amount of deceleration. Small speed changes, letting off the gas etc, may not be enough to actuate trailer brakes. I have used cruise control, normal, with no interference or tugging from trailer brakes as speed is increased and decreased by the cruise control. This is based on my use experience only.
Question:	According to the wiring diagrams the controller is powered directly from the battery. Is the unit then powered all the time
Answer:	You would need to run a 12 volt 30-40 amp fused auxillary feed and a 30-40 amp ground line to the 7pin.
Question:	do the brakes engage when backing up
Answer:	Yes. Since Echo is not hardwired to a singular vehicle, it can be used in that environment. Note: the current product warranty does not cover commercial use, so keep that in mind.
Question:	does this come with any plut/pigtail for wiring into vehicle system
Answer:	No, my tacoma’s 7-pin is rotated 90° clockwise and it works fine.

Brake Control Wiring Harness.

• Tekonsha 3040 Brake Control Wiring Adapter; 2 Plugs;

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this tekonsha 3040 2-plug brake control wiring adapter fit my 2008 toyota tundra
Answer:	The vehicle make or type doesn't matter, the included remote pairs with the controller as long as both have 12 volt power. It can be used with any tow vehicle at that point. You may need a kit to add a seven pin trailer plug for your vehicle and include a 12v power supply and a ground in that, but not a brake sensor wire as this kit takes care of that. I used this set up in a 2010 BMW X5 diesel.
Question:	Will it fit 2009 tacoma
Answer:	Yes it does, two different mounting brackets are supplied. It is a great unit...
Question:	I google trailer brake adapter for 2014 Toyota Tundra and it brings me here, but then says it wont fit.. Will it fit
Answer:	I ordered mine with a harness, but it does come with a generic that can be used also. I spoke to the seller at time of order to verify that they gave me the right harness
Question:	Will this work on a 2004 tundra
Answer:	Yes it a plug and play..

CURT Electrical Trailer Brake Controllers

CURT offers several different trailer brake controller models to provide you with a solution that fits your unique towing setup and budget. We carry time-based and inertia-based or proportional brake controllers.

All CURT trailer brake controllers are designed for easy installation. Most use our quick plug harnesses, and each comes with its own set of features and benefits.

For a helpful guide in selecting a brake controller, see below.

Two types of brake controllers:

CURT electric brake controllers fall into one of two categories: inertia-based or time-based. These refer to the method of activation used by the brake controller. Both types are safe and effective for stopping a trailer. However, depending on your needs, one may be preferred over the other.

Inertia-based

Inertia-based or proportional trailer brake controllers use an electronic mechanism, called an accelerometer, to detect the momentum of the vehicle-trailer combination while braking. The controller accentuates the trailer brakes in proportion to the momentum, allowing for a smooth, highly efficient stop.

Time-based

Time-based activation is less complex than inertia-based. When stopping, a time-based brake controller accentuates the trailer brakes based on whatever gain setting is input by the driver. Although simple in operation, time-based trailer brake controllers are effective and provide a more budget-friendly option.

Heavy-duty towing

If you are towing a heavy trailer or cargo, an inertia-based brake controller will provide superior control to make smoother stops and to put less strain on your vehicle.

Light-duty towing

If you’re towing a simple boat trailer or popup camper, a time-based trailer brake controller may be sufficient. CURT time-based controllers are easily adjustable for varying loads.

Frequent towing

If you’re planning to tow often, an inertia-based brake controller is recommended. The sophisticated operation will help prolong the life of your vehicle and trailer.

Occasional towing

If you only plan to tow a few times a year, such as for family camping trips during the summer, a time-based brake controller is an effective and budget-conscious option.

Spectrum Electric Trailer Brake Controller

The CURT Spectrum trailer brake controller provides powerful brake operation at your fingertips, featuring a simple, dash-integrated knob with a separate computer module.

The knob has 10 tri-color LEDs and a rotary, push-button to control and monitor all trailer brake activity.

The separate computer module can be mounted out of sight, providing smooth, responsive braking and promoting a true factory look and feel on the dash of your vehicle.

Simple, rotary knob

All trailer brake settings and conditions are communicated through the simple but powerful rotary knob of the Spectrum trailer brake controller. It provides highly responsive operation without cluttering up the look of your vehicle’s dash.

Ramp-up LED display

The Spectrum brake controller displays all settings, preferences and operations through 10 tri-color LED lights. Encircling the knob control, the lights flash, ramp up and change color based on the various braking conditions and user input.

Two mounting options

The rotary knob can be mounted onto the dash for a completely integrated look with the vehicle’s other controls. Each brake controller comes with hardware for a drill mount, as well as an adhesive pad for a surface, stick-on mount.

Out-of-sight module

The main module that controls and operates the trailer brakes is separate from the rotary knob, allowing you to mount it out of sight. This promotes a factory look and feel in the interior of your vehicle, unlike most other aftermarket brake controllers.

Highly responsive

The Spectrum electric trailer brake controller not only has a subtle, integrated design, but it also provides intelligent, responsive braking. It uses an advanced accelerometer circuit to measure the inertia of the vehicle on three separate planes. It is able to sense the motion of the vehicle and trailer while braking, to provide proportional power for a smooth, safe stop.

Manual override

The Spectrum brake controller also gives the driver advanced control over the vehicle-trailer combination, providing an easily accessible manual override. The rotary knob itself has a built-in push-button feature that manually applies the trailer brakes whenever needed to maintain full control over the towing setup.

Automatic leveling

With its smart braking operation, the Spectrum is easy to set up for any towing scenario, including a diverse combination of vehicles and trailers. It features an automatic leveling system and automatic calibration to eliminate time-consuming requirements during the setup process. It is able to operate two to eight trailer brakes at a time, making it a perfect fit for most vehicle-trailer combinations.
