• Need Help Wiring Electronic Brake Controller to 2007 Ford E350 Van With Tow Package
• The blue wire, or EBC wire ends somewhere along the factory wiring harness. Where it ends can vary and it is better to run a power wire from the blue wire under the dash to the back of the vehicle. For this you will need 10 Gauge Blue Primary Wire, part # 10-1-1, which is sold by the foot. I would say 25 feet would be more than enough wire to run to the back of your 2007 Ford E350 Van. If your vehicle has just the factory 4-flat connector, you will need to install a 7-way connector....

• Location of Factory Brake Controller Port on 2012 Ford E350 Van With Factory Tow Package
• On your 2012 Ford E350 Van with the factory towing package the brake controller port should be located behind the center of the dash above the stereo. You will need to remove the center panel above the stereo and to the left. Once it is removed there is a box where the Factory OEM brake controller would normally be installed, if your van was so equipped, and the connector is behind that box. The connector you found below the steering column is not the brake controller port. For your 2012...

• What Drilling is Required to Install the Roadmaster Sway Bar on a Ford E-450 Class C Motorhome
• The reason there is drilling required to install the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1139-147 on your 2004 Ford Super Duty Class C motorhome is because the end links mount in a different location on the Roadmaster unit than the OEM unit. Check out the installation instructions I attached to see this as well.

• How to Install a Fully Functioning 7-Way Connector on a 2008 Ford E-350
• If there was a 7-Way on your 2008 Ford E-350 and it has been removed then you should be able to find the US Car Connector (see attached photo) that connects to the Replacement Multi-Tow 7-Way & 4 Pole Trailer Connector # 74682. After looking under your E-350 if you still cannot find it then you need to install the Universal Wiring Kit # ETBC7 which connects to a 4-Way like the T-One # 118551 (if you don't have a 4-Way). The ETBC7 kit gives you everything that you need for a fully functioning...

• Where to Find the Stoplight Switch on a 2011 Ford E350 to Install a Brake Controller
• To get the brake light signal you will need to tap into the stoplight switch behind the brake pedal. You will want to use a circuit tester like the part # 3808 to test for the circuit that has voltage when the brakes are applied and none when they are not being applied. In order to install a brake controller you are first going to need a 4-way at the rear of your vehicle. For that I would recommend a Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring # 118551. I attached review videos and installation...

• Brake Controller Install Port Location for a 2014 Ford Van
• The correct brake controller harness to use on your 2014 Ford Van is the part # 3034-P. I attached a picture that shows how you will locate the correct harness on your vehicle.

• Does Wiring Polarity Matter for Installing Optronics Clearance or Side Marker Light MC32AB
• Yes, the Optronics Trailer Clearance or Side Marker Light # MC32AB can be wired with either of its two black wires used for ground or for power. Since this is a single-function/single-bulb light it does not matter which is which. For a replacement incandescent bulb for this light you can use part # A194B which is a 194-type standard bulb.

• 2018 Redhawk 29XK Brake Controller Install Port Location
• I just checked with Tekonsha and they confirmed that the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3034-P that you referenced will work on your 2018 Redhawk 29XK E-450 Class C motorhome. I attached a picture that shows where to locate the port. The brake controller I'd recommend is the Prodigy P3 part # 90195 because this brake controller senses the amount of braking your tow vehicle is applying and puts a proportional amount of braking on the trailer's brakes. It also has a display that uses...

• Installing a Brake Controller on a 2014 Ford E-350 Van
• If your 2014 Ford E-350 Van came with a factory installed 7-Way trailer connector then all you would need is the brake controller and the wiring harness. The harness you referenced, # 3034-P, is correct for your van and Tekonsha brake controllers such as the P2 # 90885. With a factory installed 7-Way the wiring for the trailer lights is already present. If you have a factory installed 4-Way connector at the back of the van then you will still use # 3034-P but there is a little more to...

• Parts Needed to Install a 7-Way and Brake Controller in a 2013 Ford E250 Van

To start you will need to install this harness. Next you will need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way. For that you will need the Brake Controller Installation Kit part # ETBC7.

• If your Ford E250 Van is equipped with the under dash plug for installing a brake controller that matches the Brake Controller Wire Replacement for Ford, item # 3035-P, then the blue wire should be terminated along the inside driver side frame rail near the spare tire, at the rear of your van, see photo. Many times there is a connector there and the blue wire will enter the connection but, is not continued on from that point. You would need to connect the blue wire from the Adapter 4 Pole...

• Installing a 4 and 7-Way Trailer Connector on a 1999 Ford Van Cut Away RV
• We have a help article that explains how you would go about installing a 7-Way trailer connector on a Ford full size van, or in this case an RV cutaway built on the van chassis. It very well could be different on the cut away models but there are no custom fit options made specifically for the cut away models. If the van did not come with a factory installed 7 or 4-Way connector then you will have to start by hardwiring in a 4-Way using T-connector # 118344. Then to install a 7-Way you...

• What is Needed to Re-Pack Trailer Bearings With EZ-Lube or Posi-Lube Axle
• With an EZ-Lube or Posi-Lube axle, you do not have to take apart the hubs to re-pack the bearings. You are absolutely correct that all you need to do is use the grease zerk and add LubriMatic LMX Industrial Strength Grease # L11390 or LubriMatic Wheel Bearing Grease # L11465 with Grease Gun # L30200, # L30416, or # L30480.
