You can install your Prodigy P2 trailer brake controller # 90885 in your 2018 Ford F-150 using wiring adapter part # 3034-P.
BUT.....yes, I have to give you one of those...on some of the early production 2018 F-150s Ford omitted the fuse and fuse holder from the power distribution box if the truck does not have the factory integrated brake controller.
On such a truck the wiring adapter will still plug in to the under-dash port but the black wire that is there to supply +12V operating power to the controller will not have power. The remedies are to either have Ford replace the power box with one that has the appropriate holder/fuse or to run your own +12V power wire between the battery + terminal and the black wire at the port using a 30-amp breaker like # PK54530.
