What is Needed to Install a Brake Controller on a 2007 Ford F-150
Question:

The best wiring harness we have for your 2007 Ford F-150 that will allow for you to install a brake controller is the Universal Wiring Harness w/ ModuLite and Brake Controller Harness part # 22551. For a more cost effective installation kit, I recommend the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller part # ETBC7. Both of the above kits come with everything you'll need to install a brake controller on your truck.
Regardless of which options your truck came equipped with, there should be a plug that will be used to connect the brake controller under the driver's side dash panel. The plug-in adapter for your truck and the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195 is the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers part # 3035-P.
I have attached an installation video of our brake controller install kit on a newer Ford F-150 for you but the process should still be very similar.
