Read all wiring instructions prior to making electrical connections to the tow 

vehicle. 

WARNING:

 

Follow wiring instructions. 

Improper wiring will destroy the controller and void the manufacturer’s warranty.

!

WARNING:

 

To reduce the risk of injury or damage to property: 

Always 

connect 

the 

white wire first

 and the 

black wire second

.

All four controller wires must be connected properly for the controller to operate
correctly.

Failure to connect the wires correctly can cause loss of trailer braking.

!

WARNING:

 

The white wire must be connected to a known good ground (preferably the negative
battery post).

Improper or no ground will result in poor controller performance or lack of
performance altogether.

Improper ground connection can destroy the controller and void the manufacturer’s
warranty.

!

WARNING:

 

Improper connections may result in no trailer brakes or destroy the controller and
void the manufacturer’s warranty.

!

CAUTION: 

DO NOT

 connect the black wire to any vehicle power supply line or fuse panel that

could cause circuit overload or damage to tow vehicle wiring and vehicle
electronics.

Route the black wire through a grommet hole in the fire wall to prevent wire
grounding and away from the radio antenna to reduce any possible AM radio
interference.
