Brake Controller And 7-Way For 2011 Lincoln Navigator With Factory 4-Flat
Question:
Hello. I have the factory 4-wire connector for trailers on my Lincoln Navigator. Id like to upgrade to the 7-wire trailer connector. I would also like to add the brake module and wiring. I understand the 7-wire connector also charges the RV batteries. I havent seen this referenced, so Id like to ensure I get the kit that provides the full 7-wire functionality. Thank you.

We can get your 2011 Lincoln Navigator with the factory 4-way set up with a 7-way and trailer brake controller; and you are correct that a 7-way has a 12 volt pin which allows you to trickle charge an RV battery. So because your '11 Navigator has the factory 4-way, the only thing you need to add for the 7-way is the following part:
- Adapter 4-Pole to 7-Pole and 4-Pole # 37185
With that, the other thing you will need is the brake controller as well as the plug-in adapter, and I recommend an option from Curt for smooth braking at a very good price:
- Curt TriFlex NEXT Trailer Brake Controller # C24VV
- Curt Custom Wiring Adapter # C51322
