Tekonsha Prodigy Brake Controller

 

       

 

This is an "inertia" type controller which means that it applies the brakes proportionally to the pressure you apply to your vehicle. This is the recommended method by the axle manufacturer of your A'van. It certainly is the "spunkiest" looking gadget around. One interesting feature is a warning light glows if your A'van becomes disconnected from the tow vehicle whilst on the move! Perish the thought! Mounting could be a problem as it would appear that it goes on top of the dash unless there is some way that you can get the LED display to invert. There is no info on the site concerning this vital aspect. You can get more info from the Hitches Online website in the States:
