Installation of Tekonsha Brake Controller Adapter
For most applications, the factory plug is located beneath the dash, near the center console. If you have a Ford full-size van, the harness is underneath and to the left of the steering column. The Ford Explorer and Mercury Mountaineer have 6-pin connectors behind the glove box on the passenger's side. On a Ford 2010 Flex, the connection point is under the front edge of the dash directly below the steering column. On a 2013 Ford Explorer, the connection point could be behind the driver's side kick panel. On a 2014 Ford Explorer, the brake controller port is located by the steering column.
To install your electric brake controller you need to connect the wiring of the controller to your vehicle. Certain manufacturers offer pre-wired options, typically known as tow packages, wherein these wires are run for you from the dash to the trailer connector on the back of your vehicle. Often, a brake controller wiring harness is included with your tow package. This harness plugs into a port beneath your dash and connects to the four wires of the brake controller. If, however, you have a brake controller with a plug in place of the four loose wires, you can use the Tekonsha adapter.
This adapter requires no hardwiring. It is designed to plug directly into your electric brake controller for the simplest installation possible. Because there are no wires to connect, installation is not permanent. You can unplug and remove your brake controller at any time and securely stow it away.

I ordered a Draw-Tite 5535 Brake Controller & adapter cable 3035-P from etrailer for my 2011 Ford Holiday Rambler F53 Chassis RV to tow my Tow Dolly with electric brakes. I ordered the parts on Saturday and received them on Thursday using economy shipping rate which was great. I received just what I ordered and installed them today (Friday) everything worked perfect and the install was very quick and easy.

2010 Land Rover Range Rover
I ordered the trailer brake adapter harness for my 2010 full size Range Rover.
It fit great and its well made to do the swap,
for others that will read this here is how.
I found the brake connector in the truck was hidden behind the fat harness thats next to the inside left kick panel, just behind the hood release panel
By pulling on the OBD 2 wire harness, I found it was tied to the OBD harness.
Some say that the connector is on the left side of the steering column , in my truck is was on the far side of the fat harness so it was hard to see.
I had to remove the left side console, I removed the screw, then pulled the bottom of the wood panel towards the left door, the 2 pins released, then the panel slides to the rear of the truck to dislodge the top pin.
5 screws secured the lower panel , remove the lamp ,unplug it,
then remove the OBD 2 connector from its mount , slide the gray collar to the left kick panel then the harness pushes up out of its holder.
Plug in your new adapter harness for your trailer brake controller,
Assemble is the reverse of taking it apart.
in the picture the new harness is connected to the gray connector

Isuzu Rodeo
Multiple products which I purchased from Etrailer to upgrade my Capri Rodeo truck camper. The steps are well made, easy to setup, and extremely helpful in entering and exiting. I set them next to the door when travelling. The trailer brake controller smoothed out the jerking that was a problem for far too long and simple to install. The vent cover was definitely needed as the original had a hole in it. The removal and replacement went well.

2015 Lincoln Navigator
I'd ordered the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Proportional Trailer Brake Controller (1 to 4 Axles ) on a Monday with a Wednesday delivery date of two days, as I'd specified. I have a Lincoln Navigator that had the factory installed heavy tow package. I had also ordered the adapter connector for Prodigy P2 controller to the Navigator's factory plugin. The entire install took me 15 minutes. I found the video review of the controller quite helpful as it demonstrated how to static set the controller's setting before drive trials and how to set the "boost" settings. Good price and very easy to install.

2007 Ford F-150
I haven't towed with the it yet. But installation on my 2007 Ford F150 was pretty simple. The plastic panel I attached it to had steel behind it. So I removed the plastic panel, mounted the bracket, then trimmed the excess length off the screws, and reinstalled the panel. The wiring harness plugged right into the truck's plug under the steering wheel. It seems like a great product, and having the specifc wiring harness for my truck made it simple to install. Sheila was very helpful too. Thanks.

Still working just fine. The Tekonsha controller and adapter performed fine on a long tow from NJ to OK and back last year, and I suspect they will continue to work just fine in the future. Definitely the way to go if the factory wiring is present.

2013 Ford Explorer
Super easy install on 2013 Explorer Sport- just plugs in! Only reason I docked it one rating is it should have come with a couple of cable clamps and screws to hold the excess cable neatly & safely under the dash. I had to buy them separately - see photo.

- Recommended Pop-Up Camper Trailer Towing System for 2007 Ford ExplorerThe Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 13112 will fit right under your 1-1/4 inch receiver as you stated. Your vehicle has a towing capacity of 3,500 lbs, so you will be able to tow you the Rockwood Pop-up you referenced. The rear differential is the 3.55. Most will have the 4 flat wiring harness already, so then you will use the # ETBC7L to give you the adapter from the 4-way to the 7-way with power and circuit breaker.

If your truck does not have a factory 7-way trailer connector you will need to have this working 4-pole connector in place to install one for use with a brake controller.

Then for installing a brake controller like the excellent Prodigy P2 # 90885 you will use a quick-connect wiring adapter # 3035-P.

- Installing Trailer Brake Controller on a 2006 Ford F-150 with Factory Installed Brake ControllerAccording to our FAQ, which I have linked for reference, you only need to unplug the one connector that will be used with the Prodigy P2, # 90885. The plug that is needed will have matching wires with the brake controller adapter harness. The wiring should be labeled for function.

I would start by using a circuit tester like part # PTW2993, to test for power on the brake output circuit at the back of the truck. You'll want a helper to hold the manual override while you do the testing on the connector. If you find that there is no power, which is what I...

The blue brake output wire you found is the correct fit and you should also have the 12V power wire along the rear frame rail.

Judging by the question you were referred from, this neighbor was referring to the factory plug that allows you to use a plug and play adapter to install your aftermarket brake controller like the # 3035-P instead of hard wiring.

The Black wire should be connected to a 40 amp circuit breaker, part # 9510, and then to the positive battery terminal.
