Brake Controller and Install Harness Recommendation for 2012 Ford Expedition with Tow Package

Question:

Looking for the correct brake controller for my 2012 Expedition EL Limited. the vehicle is already equipped with the HD towing package, but it did not have a brake controller installed from factory. I looked under the dash and the free plug is there - so it looks like plug and play? which controller is appropriate - we only pull small trailers and occasionally a 30foot travel trailer approx 7k lbs. There appears to be an install video of a 2011 expedition, but the link does not work - it takes you to a video library and no video for this install?

For your 2012 Ford Expedition a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P3 Brake Controller part # 90195. 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. This will be the last brake controller you buy. It can easily be transferred to future vehicles as well.

The correct install harness would then be the part # 3035-P which will plug right into the port you have under the dash of your vehicle.
