My car is a 2016 Honda Pilot, and it performed admirably. I'm not sure if Honda changed the wiring in any way. My guess is that it will work, but it is only a guess.
My 2011 Honda Pilot was a perfect match. It was simple thanks to Honda. I'm guessing the 2010 Odyssey will be similar.
It certainly ought to. I can't speak for the 2022 models, but Tekonsha lists this as being compatible with Honda Ridgelines from 2006 to the present. Honda has no reason to redesign it in 2022, in my opinion.
It's 25- 28" long. It went on for a little longer than it should have. I haven't installed it yet because I just received my Pilot's brake controller yesterday. The brake controller comes with a DIY harness, but I prefer this one because it's already assembled and longer.

The connection and wire pin out matched the universal oem harness, which was ideal for my 2019 Honda Pilot Elite. Details can be found in the photos. Take note of how the oem diagram is oriented. You must mentally complete a 180-degree turn. Trying to splice and connect wires with other harness options was a lot more difficult. Finding the connection in the vehicle wasn't difficult, but connecting it with one hand was a challenge.
Installed on a 2014 Honda Pilot with factory-installed hitch and trailer socket wiring. I was able to fit the controller into the small cubby in the dash to the right of the gear selector because it was long enough. I simply used a dremel with a 90-degree head and a cone-shaped grinding wheel to drill a hole in the top back of the cubby hole large enough for the connector to pass through. Short screws were used to secure the controller to the top of the cubby hole. I removed the trim from behind the gear selector to make the installation easier, but it could probably be done without it. I used it in conjunction with the Tekonsha Primus IQ Electronic Brake Control (90160).
It was installed by a trailer and hitch shop that was recommended to me by my Honda dealer. It was a tight fit to connect this to the Honda's port, and it wasn't as easy as the pilot manual suggests. Even though it was a tight fit, the mechanic said it made the job easier than manually wiring the controller. Using this adapter, they were able to install the brake controller in about 20 minutes.
The controller is simple to set up. If your controller doesn't work after installation, check the Aux fuse box under the hood; mine didn't come with a brake controller fuse installed from the factory, but a $0. That was fixed with a 50 fuse, and it worked perfectly.
From the Honda OEM connector under the dash, it was just long enough to reach the center console (barely). Mine was in front of the console gear selector, which was located at the bottom of the central dash console. The OEM connector is not above the brake pedal as indicated in the instructions, but rather above where your left foot would rest while driving.
I couldn't find any cables that said they were compatible with the Acura MDX anywhere. It appears that no one has ever tried to connect a brake controller to it. Following a comparison of the pig-to-human ratios, With the pictures of this Honda Pilot harness adapter on the tail cable that came with the Acura factory hitch, I decided to give it a go. In the worst-case scenario, I was going to snip the cables and properly connect them. br>br>Exciting news: It works fine, and the connector is a perfect match for the Acura adapter, which is a pleasant surprise. I also mapped out the wires and soldered them exactly as I would have. With my Prodigy brake controller, I can now tow my 18' car trailer while controlling the brakes. br>br>There is one minor, unspecified caution: " appears on my brake controller from time to time. " nc. After I hook up the trailer, I get "(not connected)" on and off. After I hit the brakes once, it seems to go away. It makes me wonder if the Acura internals are using circuit initialization in an unusual way. In any case, it appears to function properly when I require it. Because it's a straight-through cable, it can't be the adapter. a well-wired connector that goes all the way through.
Brake control wiring harness that has been wired. The build quality is acceptable, with thick wires and hard plastic connectors that match the factory connector perfectly. The most difficult part of the project is removing the factory harness, which Honda decided to hide above the parking brakes for some reason.
All that is required for brake assist is the lightest setting.
