But look at all the fun your having.
That does look like major surgery there.
Good luck on that install
Can you provide details of the box you mounted your redarc controller in? Make/model or link to where I can purchase a box like that?Nope! We opted not to drill but if done right would look good im sure.

Yes, I did. Redarc's part number is TPH-004. I bought it from etrailer, and their part number is RED77FR, but I can confirm despite the different part number it is indeed the Redarc harness.Did you use a redarc control harness? If yes what is the product number?
I have same problem - cannot find factory plug for brake controller on driver side (maybe because I had the dealer install the wiring at the dealership). Did you ever figure out how to mate a brake controller to the Jeep non-factory installed wiring?So my 2022 GC limited did not come with the tow package. It has the tow prep package. I have installed the factory Mopar hitch and harness myself. However since it was not a factory tow package car there is no connector on the driver's side kick panel for the brake controller. In the wiring instructions for the factory brake controller it gives an option for connecting it to a Jeep without the factory tow package. I have attached the page where it shows behind the passenger side kick panel is the BCM. It refers to "B15" I'm assuming this means one specific wire is the signal wire from the brake switch for the brake controller. I just don't don't know what B15 means. Can anyone help?
I’m in the same boat.

How has the Curt Echo held up for you? I’m in the market, but I read some scary reviews on Amazon about brakes locking up on the road. Thanks!I have the WL summit reserve with the tow package. I had some of the same questions since I was taking delivery of a new RV. The dealer was helpful by suggesting a blue tooth enabled plug in brake controller you simply plug in to the rear 6 pin receptacle. You control it with your iPhone. I used it to tow my RV and it worked well. If you are interested I have one for sale at a good price. No drilling. No wires to hood up. Just plug in.
Seems we’re all here for the same problem. Has anybody found this yet?I’m in the same boat. Did y’all ever figure this out?
Where did you install your Tekonsha P3, and do you have pics? I'm trying to figure out where to install my Prodigy, but the sculpted cockpit and knee airbag are making it difficult to find a decent install point. The Prodigy is very particular to be mounted in-line to the direction of travel. Askew could be a problem.
Otherwise it's either Mopar (dealer still not sure it can be installed since it's not listed as an official GCL accessory), or Redarc. I'd like to keep the front 12V as the only other 12V is in the rear. And either of these 2 install options = massive console disassembly.
Couldn't Jeep have a $700-ish option to include the brake controller at the factory?!?
Thanks,
Rob
Do you have a pic of your solution for the mounting bracket by chance? I'll probably be tackling this next week.I made a simple metal bracket to bolt the Redarc controller to solid structure right at the bottom of the kick panel. Don’t try to tywrap it in place or the accelerometer readings used for brake control can be inconsistent. Good luck!
