The 302800 is a plug-in link with a 2-plug connection that works across Tekonsha's plug-in controller lineup. Plug it in, mount the controller, tow with confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're wiring in a Tekonsha brake controller and you'd rather not cut into your truck's harness, this is the piece that keeps it clean. The Tekonsha 302800 is a plug-in wiring adapter built to work with all of Tekonsha's plug-in style trailer brake systems. Two plugs, no splicing, no guessing at wire colors under the dash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's the idea. Tekonsha's plug-in controllers are designed to snap into a matched harness instead of being hardwired one wire at a time. This adapter is that link. One end plugs into the controller, the other ties into your brake-control wiring, and you're done. For anyone who's spent an afternoon on their back under a dash with a test light, that's a real time saver. It also keeps the connection tidy, so there's nothing loose to rattle or corrode over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt works across the Tekonsha lineup, so whether you're running a proportional controller or a time-based unit, the 2-plug connection is the same. That also makes swaps easy. If you upgrade your controller down the road, the adapter stays put and the new unit plugs right in without touching the rest of your wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA couple of honest notes. This is the adapter, not the brake controller itself, and it's not the vehicle-specific harness that ties into a factory tow package. What plugs in on the vehicle side depends on how your truck or SUV is wired, so if you're not sure what your rig already has behind the dash, check with us before ordering. We'd rather get you the right part the first time than have you send one back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor most folks towing a travel trailer, a boat, or a utility trailer with electric brakes, a plug-in setup like this is the difference between a fifteen-minute job and a frustrating afternoon. It's a small part, but it's the one that makes the whole install feel finished.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlug-in design connects Tekonsha brake controllers without cutting or splicing vehicle wiring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e2-plug connection compatible with all Tekonsha plug-in style trailer brake control systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLets you swap or upgrade controllers later without rewiring, the adapter stays in place\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNo matching wire colors by hand, the connection is keyed and plugs together\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorks with proportional and time-based Tekonsha controllers\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGenuine Tekonsha part, MPN 302800\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Tekonsha reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat does the Tekonsha 302800 do?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's a plug-in wiring adapter that connects a Tekonsha plug-in style brake controller to your brake-control wiring without hardwiring.
