No electric brakes - you need to add a brake controller if you want electric brakes.

It will not work for trailer brakes. The harness is wired for it (blue wire), but the corresponding plug on the car side is empty. X5 trailer module is not wired for trailer brakes. Search the forums. People have added aftermarket elec trailer brake modules.

And if your trailer has LED lights, they may flicker when the car is turned off with the X5 trailer module/ set-up. You will need to turn off "cold monitoring" with PA Soft, or NCS...or install a traditional non-led light somewhere in the trailer light circuit..

Also make sure you get the 2 butterfly-shaped black support brackets (a little larger than your hand) that sit on the inside of the X5 near the spare tire. They are different left to right. At least two of the bolts from the hitch bolt to the inside of the X5 with these brackets.

Since you are there, you might as well grab the climate control module from the center dash if present. They are starting to fail on us.
