Brake Controller Harness Recommendation for 2000 F53 Ford Chassis
Question:
I am looking to purchase a 2001 Fleetwood Bounder and it is on a 2000 Ford P53gas chassis. Is there a plug for the brake controller already on the vehicle? Thanks

On the 2000 Ford F-53 chassis the brake controller port is actually located up behind the instrument cluster. It can be difficult to get to but that is where it is located. For brake controller # 90885 you would use harness # 3035-P.
Take a look at the picture I have provided from Ford document Q-206.
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes.
