Question:

The brake switch has 3 wires one green with willow stripe shows hot all the time. One green with brown stripe shows hot all the time. Third wire is green with brown stripe never shows hot. Can you help me. Thanks

The brake switch on a 2018 Ram 1500 is not usable for this purpose. You will need to use a stop light switch # RM-751000.This will provide a signal to the supplemental braking system.
I have linked our review video and our install video for this kit if you want to take a look.
