Aftermarket brake controllers?
I need to add a brake controller to our Honda Odyssey and wanted to know if there are any recommended controllers? Don't need anything fancy, just wanting to know if there are any to stay away from?

Anyone know if this will plug and play with a 7 pin harness?
we currently have a 4 pin harness but with the new trailer we need to upgrade to a 7 pin. So I need to install the harness and the brake controller.
Brake controller plug 'n play has nothing to do with whether your vehicle has a simple 4-pin or Bargman 7-pin connector at the rear but rather whether you can simply plug the brake controller into an existing port on the vehicle, below the dash somewhere. This will depend on the make / model / year of your vehicle but you can check on tekonsha.com ... my guess it's not Plug 'n Play, in which case you (or an installer) would have to wire in the controller with the supplied harness that will have a plug on one end that plugs into the controller and bare ends at the other that you'd splice into the vehicle's wiring. I run a Tekohsha P3, had a P2 before, and would highly recommend either.
