Is a 4 Pole to 7 Pole Adapter Available for a 2013 Ford F-150?
Question:
I have watched your videos but when I look in my truck I do not have the extra wires where the 7 way plugs into. My truck only has 4 wires going into the 4 pole. Is there a way to convert it? If it is not as simple as your video shows and I need to run cables where does the blue or brake cable plug into? Thank you

Expert Reply:
If you are looking to install a brake controller on your 2013 Ford F-150, and it has the factory 4-flat, you would use the Hopkins Adapter # 37185 to convert the 4-pole on your truck.
Should you be missing the wiring completely, you would need universal installation kit # ETBC7.
