Brake Controller Recommendation and Install for a 2014 Ford F-150
Question:
I am looking for an electric brake controller for my 2014 F150. I will be towing a 2 horse bumper pull trailer. Rough weight of trailer and 2 horses will be 5,250lbs. Could you recommend which products would work best for me. I would like to stay under $100 if possible. Thank you

Expert Reply:
If you have a factory 7-way connector at the rear of your 2014 Ford F-150 I would recommend the Curt Brake Controller part # C24VV and the install harness part # C51436. These two parts will make installation very easy as the harness plugs into the controller and then the other end plugs into the port under your dash.
If you have a factory 4-way connection at the rear of your vehicle you will also need the part # 37185 to complete the install. Check out the FAQ article to the right for more install info.
