Thanks for mentioning that it does not matter which direction it is mounted!
another video doesn't show where the wires connect... 🤦🏻♂
I have seen people install it without the mount. How would you do that
Hi guys. Thanks for the demo video. How do I make sure I will be able to use an OEM factory wiring harness for my Redarc. Have a 2017 wrangler Unlimited. Thanks. 👍

The RedArc Jeep harness is good for years 2014-2020 and will fit right into your factory plug with no other customization. It’s effectively a plug and play system.
@@TrailBendersOverland Do all JKU's have a factory plug? I have a 2018.
Hi guys ,do you sell the redarc system to the uk
Where do you find the plug on a right had drive
Morris vickery That’s a good question! It should be either in the same spot as our or exactly apposite of our on the right kick panel. Can you confirm for us? It should be very close to all the wiring that comes through the firewall. That wiring is easy to find as it’s a thick harness coming through a boot on the firewall. It would be great if you’d let us know so we know for future questions.
Hey guys! I plugged my Redarc into the Jeep gladiator and it started throwing codes for acc service needed, start/stop service needed, and a code for stability control unavailable. Any idea what might have happened?
Strange! Are you using the TPH-001 Harness?
Yes, got them both from 4 wheel parts
Ashley Dennis So weird. If you unplug it do the codes go away? Ours was so simple plug and play. It just worked. The harness you got from 4wheelparts, was that a RedArc branded harness or a 3rd party?
When unplugging the harness the codes would disappear but as soon as you plugged it back in they returned. Upon more investigation it seems that the codes show up when I press in the red arc knob.
@@ashleydennis5344 Hello, were you able to get your issue resolved? I want to buy this setup, but skeptical with your experience.
Any feedback on this setup? Does that harness work without any modification (no swapping wires)?
We’ve been using it for the last few weeks and it’s been amazing. The harness is plug and play. Very happy with it. The auto mode works surprisingly well. Better than manual.
Trail Benders Overland Thanks for the feedback. Order has been placed.
Awesome! Thanks for the order! Let us know if you have any questions at all.
Thank you for this video! I have been reading everything I can about this setup, and some people have said, mostly in older posts, that the "plug 'n' play" harness won't work in a JL without modification. They say it can mess up your computer. Are you guys still problem free so far?
That’s interesting. I’ll need to contact RedArc about this. They said it should be fine for a JL. This install was on a Gladiator so I can’t really speak on a JL install. We will be doing the install on a JL soon though to test for them. Will be sure to share our findings!!
That said, we’re totally problem free.
Have ordered the tow pro yet?
@@TrailBendersOverland Yeah, sorry! I ordered it before I found your video and store here. I will look to you in the future as we Just Empty Every Pocket on our new Wrangler. Thanks for the reply and the helpful information.
Since this video was made, Redarc has released a V3 of the trailer brake controller, however the pigtail for the Jeep JL remains the same and is made by Tekonsha, part 3073-P and can be found on Amazon here: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08288R363/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Is there a list of what i need and link? Thanks

@@TrailBendersOverland Which Jeep wiring harness for a JLUR? The site lists one for a Cherokee, which says to use the one for a Ram, which says that you'll have to swap some wires.
Are we supposed to use the one for the Cherokee, or the Ram + www.etrailer.com/Accessories-and-Parts/Redarc/331-TPH-017.html ?
@@md4curvs We used the Cherokee one for a while and it technically worked. But there were a few bugs. Get the RAM one and swap the wires we mention on the website and you’ll be good to go.
@@TrailBendersOverland it looks like you're still showing version 2 of the controller on your site. Is that accurate or will I get v3 of I order one?
@@md4curvs We get everything straight from RedArc. They send us the most current gear when we make an order.
Great information but I strongly disagree that about one not needing to see the control knob.
Why is that?
