Wiring
NOTE: Removal of factory supplied quick plug may void warranty.
Most pick-ups and utility vehicles are equipped with a plug from
the factory that allows quick brake control installation. Check the
owner's manual for plug availability, location and installation.
If the mating plug supplied with the vehicle is no longer available, a CURT
quick plug can be used. See the CURT catalog for application information.
For tow vehicles not equipped with a factory brake control plug,
we suggest CURT brake control wiring kit, part# 51500.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that both positive and ground connections are made directly to
the tow vehicle's battery. Connecting to existing wiring or chassis ground, other than the
battery terminal, may damage vehicle circuits and could lead to trailer brake failure.
Mount a 30 amp, auto reset, circuit breaker as close to the battery as possible.
IMPORTANT: When passing wire through sheet metal, always go through an existing
grommet, add a grommet or use silicone sealer to protect the wire from sharp edges.
Feed two 10 gauge wires, one white and one black, from the mounted brake control to the
battery area. Using a ring terminal, connect the black wire to the 'aux' side
of the 30 amp circuit breaker. Leave the white wire for connection later.
Using a 10/12 gauge butt connector, attach the black wire from the 'aux' side of the
30 amp circuit breaker to the brake control's black wire. Using a 10/12 gauge butt
