HRepair Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller — Universal Replacement for Tekonsha 90160, 1–3 Axles, Proportional Braking & Digital D

HRepair Primus IQ replacement is a drop-in universal trailer brake controller that delivers proportional, adjustable braking for trailers with one to three axles.

This compact unit replaces the Tekonsha 90160 and fits most Ford, GM, Chevy, Dodge, RAM, Toyota, Jeep and other tow vehicles. It combines proportional braking with a clear digital display, manual override and multiple boost settings so you can fine-tune trailer response for different loads and driving conditions. Designed for straightforward installation, the controller works with a plug-and-play wiring harness and mounts within a 180° adjustment range for easy driver access.

How does the proportional braking system improve towing stability?

The Primus IQ senses the vehicle’s deceleration and applies trailer brakes in direct proportion, reducing sudden jerks and helping trailers track more smoothly. That proportional response lessens wear on the towing vehicle and trailer braking components while improving driver control during routine stops.

• Self-leveling circuitry for consistent activation regardless of hitch angle
• Real-time digital readout to monitor brake activity and connection status
• Automatic proportional engagement to match vehicle braking force

Can I adjust braking for different trailer weights or road conditions?

Yes — the controller includes a manual lever and three selectable boost levels so you can increase or reduce trailer braking intensity as needed. Those adjustments let you compensate for heavier loads, downhill grades or slippery surfaces without changing vehicle settings.

• Manual override lever for instant, on-demand braking
• Three boost settings to tailor power for light to heavy loads
• Clear digital feedback so you see the current boost and output at a glance

Is installation difficult and will it fit my truck or SUV?

Installation is designed to be user-friendly: the controller uses a plug-and-play harness and offers flexible mounting options, including a snap-in clip or bracket. It fits the same wiring and mounting pattern as the Tekonsha 90160, making it compatible with many popular makes and models when used with the appropriate vehicle harness.

• Plug-and-play wiring reduces need for splicing
• Mounts with either clip or bracket and pivots across a 180° range
• Compatible with most 1–3 axle trailer setups and common truck wiring harnesses
