About Tekonsha 90160 Primus IQ Electronic Brake Control
Overall Feedback:
98% positive
96% appreciated the adjustable braking settings
The controls are simple to use with easy-to-understand boost functions and straightforward adjustability.
Adjusting the Primus is easy, especially compared to the old one where I had to set the level position every time I hooked up my trailer.
I adjusted the trailer-brake-controls in about 2 minutes and it has worked perfectly after a couple of trips.
94% praised for its precise braking control
The brake controller has an accelerometer built into it, providing better performance than a time-delay brake controller and eliminating the need to pump the brakes or adjust brake strength while stopping or slowing down.
In a heavy traffic situation, the brake performed exceptionally well.
When I braked hard, the trailer stayed behind me without any shimmy or nonsense, just a smooth and fast stop.
96% liked its reliable and durable design, though 4% experienced premature wear
I love the feature of the trailer brake control that senses whether the trailer brakes are connected or not while driving, indicated by 'c' for connected and 'nc' for not connected.
I have been using it for a couple of months and cannot think of anything I would change, indicating that the product is durable.
I am satisfied with the proportional controller I purchased, indicating it was worth the extra money.
The dealer installed a cheap, time-delay brake controller which only lasted for 2 weeks and had poor performance, especially at slow speeds and when backing the trailer.
98% found it easy to install and set up, though 2% encountered difficulties
The installation process is as easy as any other brake controller.
Installing it in my 2000 Ford F250 Super Duty with a factory 7 pin plug was really easy.
I found it easy to install by myself and it works perfectly with trailer electric brakes.
I had a mechanic rewire my entire truck and he installed it for me while I was doing that, so I cannot comment on the installation process.
93% liked the perfect size and fit
I can easily adjust to different size loads with multiple options for load size and the ability to add boost.
I used the trailer brake controls to tow a heavy car trailer loaded with Kubota L225 loader/backhoe (about 7-8k lbs).
