Recommended 7-way Trailer Connector and Electric Brake Controller on 2011 Ford Expedition
Question:
I have a 2011 Ford Expedition EL with OUT the 7 pin connector in the back. I DO see the grey plug for the trailer brake controller under the dash. Can you recommend the required parts to install a 7-pin connector with trailer brake controller for my vehicle?

Expert Reply:
Your 2011 Ford Expedition will have a round connector somewhere under the rear bumper. This is the factory wiring to install a 7-way trailer connector. Use # 74682 for a 7-way and 4-way, along with the bracket # C57202 to help install it.
Since you have the connector to install an electric brake controller under the dash of your Expedition you can use the harness # 3035-P. I recommend using the Prodigy P2 # 90885 for a brake controller because of how reliable and easy to use it is.
