REDARC Tow-Pro Elite V3 Nissan Navara Brake Controller

The REDARC Tow-Pro Elite V3 is one of the premium electric trailer brake controllers available for Nissan Navara owners.

Unlike traditional bulky brake controllers that hang underneath the dashboard, the Tow-Pro Elite V3 uses a compact remote control dial mounted within easy reach of the driver, while the main brake controller unit is hidden behind the dashboard.

This gives your Nissan Navara a clean, discreet, factory-style brake controller installation without a large electronic box mounted underneath the steering wheel.

The Tow-Pro Elite V3 provides two braking modes:

• Proportional braking mode for smooth everyday towing

• User-controlled braking mode for additional manual control when required

• Compact remote control

• Hidden main control module

• Active calibration

• Suitable for modern vehicle electrical systems

• Compatible with electric and selected electric-over-hydraulic trailer brakes

• Designed for professional installation

REDARC identifies the Nissan Navara as a supported vehicle application and provides specific wiring options for Navara installations

Nissan Navara NP300 Electric Brake Controller Installation

We install electric brake controllers into Nissan Navara NP300 models, including installations designed around the factory dashboard layout.

For Navara NP300 vehicles, REDARC lists the TPSI-008 switch insert as a vehicle-specific option for the Tow-Pro remote head, allowing the controller dial to be integrated into an existing dashboard switch location.

The result is a professional installation that looks far cleaner than a conventional under-dash brake controller.

Your Navara brake controller installation can include:

• REDARC Tow-Pro Elite V3 supply and installation

• Vehicle-specific wiring

• Professional electrical connections

• Hidden controller module installation

• Dashboard remote-head installation

• Trailer brake output wiring

• Brake signal integration

• System testing

• Brake controller setup and calibration

• Trailer brake operation testing

Do I Need an Electric Brake Controller on My Nissan Navara?

If your Nissan Navara is towing a trailer or caravan fitted with electric brakes, the Navara needs a compatible brake controller capable of controlling those trailer brakes.

The exact legal braking requirement depends on the trailer's Gross Trailer Mass (GTM) and braking system.

In NSW:

• Trailers up to 750 kg GTM are generally exempt from the requirement to have brakes.

• Trailers over 750 kg GTM require a braking system.

• Trailers from 751 kg to 2,000 kg GTM may use an over-run braking system or an independently controlled system.

• Trailers over 2,000 kg GTM require independent braking controlled from the towing vehicle and must also have the required breakaway braking system.

This is why choosing the correct brake controller and having it correctly installed is important when towing a caravan or trailer with your Nissan Navara.

Towing a Caravan With a Nissan Navara?

The Nissan Navara is commonly used for towing:

• Caravans

• Camper trailers

• Boat trailers

• Horse floats

• Box trailers

• Trades trailers

• Plant and equipment trailers

• Enclosed trailers

• Other braked trailers

A properly installed electric brake controller allows the driver to control the trailer's electric braking system from the Navara.

For larger caravans and trailers, having the trailer brakes operating correctly is particularly important because the trailer's mass can significantly affect the combination's braking performance.

Your trailer's ATM, GTM, braking system and the Nissan Navara's towing limits should always be checked before towing.

Why Choose the REDARC Tow-Pro Elite V3 for a Nissan Navara?

The Tow-Pro Elite V3 is particularly well suited to drivers who want a discreet, high-quality brake controller rather than a large controller mounted underneath the dashboard.

Proportional braking

In proportional mode, the Tow-Pro Elite uses the vehicle's braking behaviour to apply the trailer brakes in proportion to the vehicle's braking force.

This can provide smooth trailer braking during normal road driving and touring.

Manual trailer braking

The remote dial also provides manual control of the trailer brakes.

This can be useful when the driver needs to apply the trailer brakes independently of the Navara's brakes, including situations where trailer sway needs to be managed.

REDARC specifically describes the Tow-Pro Elite's manual override as a way of applying the trailer brakes independently of the towing vehicle.

Factory-Style Nissan Navara Brake Controller Installation

Nobody wants a large brake controller hanging under the dashboard of their daily-driven Navara.

The Tow-Pro Elite V3 solves this by separating the controller electronics from the driver's control.

The main unit is installed behind the dashboard while only the small remote dial is visible.

For applicable Nissan Navara NP300 installations, REDARC's TPSI-008 switch insert provides an OEM-style mounting solution.

The result:

No bulky controller hanging below the dash.

No unnecessary dashboard clutter.

Easy driver access.

Professional factory-style appearance.

Clean electrical installation.

Nissan Navara Brake Controller Wiring

Correct wiring is critical when installing an electric brake controller.

A professional installation involves more than simply mounting a controller and connecting a few wires.

The installation needs to account for the vehicle's electrical system, brake signal, power supply, trailer brake output and the particular requirements of the brake controller.

REDARC provides specific wiring options for Nissan Navara applications, including the TPWKIT-014 wiring kit listed for Nissan Navara.

Modern vehicles can also require additional consideration when integrating brake controllers with electronically controlled vehicle systems and CAN Bus architecture.

For this reason, REDARC recommends installation by a qualified auto electrician or technician.

Nissan Navara Electric Brake Controller Calibration

Once the Tow-Pro Elite V3 has been installed, the system needs to be correctly configured and tested.

The Tow-Pro Elite uses Active Calibration, allowing the controller to learn the appropriate settings while the vehicle is driven.

REDARC states that an initial manual calibration process is not required for the Tow-Pro Elite because its Active Calibration system learns its ideal settings during driving.

We will ensure the installation is correctly completed and the system is operating as intended before you leave.

Nissan Navara Brake Controller for Caravan Towing

If your Navara is your caravan tow vehicle, choosing the right brake controller is an important part of your towing setup.

A properly installed controller gives you control over the caravan's electric brakes while keeping the installation neat inside the vehicle.

Whether you're towing from Sydney to the NSW South Coast, Blue Mountains, Central Coast, Hunter Valley or further interstate, your towing system needs to be correctly installed and operating properly.

Why Professional Installation Matters

An electric brake controller is part of your vehicle and trailer's braking system.

Incorrect wiring, poor connections or an incorrectly configured controller can result in unreliable trailer braking.

Professional installation helps ensure:

• Correct power supply

• Secure wiring

• Correct brake signal integration

• Correct trailer brake output

• Proper controller mounting

• Correct remote-head installation

• Appropriate system testing

• Reliable operation

NSW requirements also make clear that trailer braking systems must comply with the applicable braking standards for the trailer's GTM and configuration.
