We can for sure get your 2017 Honda Ridgeline set up with a brake controller, and there is one that I think meets your needs perfectly, which is from Tekonsha; it will also require a wiring adapter, which will depend on if your '17 Ridgeline has the factory tow package or not:

- Tekonsha BRAKE-EVN Trailer Brake Controller # TK63VR

- Brake Control Harness # 20127

The BRAKE-EVN is a really good value, as it gets the job done of giving you reliable braking without any unnecessary extras, which I think is what you are going for.
