Expert Reply:
The brake controller I recommend as the best for your 2020 Ford E-450 chassis is the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller part # RED44FR. This controller is very similar in design to the factory brake controller Ford would have installed in your truck but it does perform much better. There is a control box that gets installed under the dash, out of sight and then a control knob that gets mounted on your dash wherever you prefer.
The correct plug-in harness you will need is the Redarc Plug-and-Play Wiring Harness part # 331-TPH-007. The plug-in harness will be located either behind the coin tray in the dash or up under the driver side dash near the emergency brake pedal. If it's behind the coin try then you need to remove this in order to find the plug but if it's under the dash then you should not need to remove anything.
