## Description

The Tekonsha Primus IQ Proportional Electric Trailer Brake Controller gives you dependable braking power in a compact design. As an industry staple for more than ten years, this electronic brake controller kit provides a smooth braking response in any stopping situation. With its petite yet durable exterior, this electric brake controller fits nicely under the dash, making it easily accessible from the driver’s seat without being in the way. This insightful digital trailer brake controller has an easy-to-read LED display, self-diagnostic check to monitor your connection and trailer braking activity and is self-leveling when mounted within a 90-degree vertical range, so there’s no need to adjust the unit once it’s installed. The electric trailer brake controller also features a power output knob to set your desired braking power, a boost option that lets you apply up quickly and easily to three levels of additional trailer braking power, especially when hauling heavier loads, and manual override. The Primus IQ electric brake controller for trailer was created to work with electric braking systems, works proportionally in reverse to make backing into tough spots a bit easier, and - like the Prodigy P3, Prodigy P2, and many other Tekonsha brake controllers, utilizes primary sensor technology to ensure the smoothest stop possible. When you’re done towing, the IQ’s snap-in dash mounting clip, Plug & Play port for two plug adapters, and removeable electrical connector allow the unit to be quickly stored. The Primus IQ brake controller works with trailers with 1-3 axles, comes with all necessary mounting hardware, and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

Review: Zero issues with the controller, was probably the easiest installation I've done given my Ford had all the wiring tucked behind the driver side left kick panel, literally. NOTE: this only applies if you have the trailer tow package pre-installed from the factory, if you don't the wires may not be provisioned and additional wiring may be required. Always check with the mfg of the tow vehicle and the RV dealer. I simply had to pop off the panel and the wire was there, the only thing I did was pull it up into the wiring area just below the dash, mounted the controller with the hardware there above my left knee (some say don't do it in the event of an accident, I'm going against that due to accidents will provide you with other issues), and it's far enough away and to the left I can fully see it and I don't want to be looking at it after it's set up for my trailer. Set up of the controller ..took all of 7-minutes (3min to read the instructions), after the trailer is hooked up, adjust the amount of signal being sent to the trailer brakes, do a pull test and adjust/set. These are now pretty straight forward but if you don't want to install it when you buy your trailer/RV, the dealer can do it for about $50-$100 ish. Tekonsha has been in the business of brake controller and other electronics for years, sure there are others but when it comes to stopping, I trust this brand.

The Tekonsha 90160 Primus IQ Brake Controller is an excellent trailer brake controller and a great value for the money. Installation was straightforward, especially with the plug-and-play wiring harness, and the unit mounted cleanly under the dash. What I really like is how smooth and responsive the proportional braking is. The controller automatically applies trailer brakes based on how hard you press the vehicle’s brakes, which makes towing feel much safer and more controlled. ￼ The LED display is easy to read, and the diagnostics help confirm the trailer connection and braking activity. The boost feature is also very useful when towing heavier loads because it adds extra braking power when needed. ￼ Overall, this controller is reliable, simple to set up, and works exactly as advertised. If you’re towing a trailer with electric brakes, the Primus IQ is a dependable choice that delivers smooth braking and great peace of mind on the road. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
