Installing the Prodigy P3 # 90195 on a 1995 Ford E-350 Without Factory Wiring
Question:
Hello! How do I install this controller to 1995 Ford E350 that doesn’t have a tow package or harness to hook to? Could you post a wiring diagram?

We do have everything that you need to get the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 installed on your 1995 Ford E-350.
Since you don't have any wiring at all you need to start off with the T-One # 118344 which connects to the basic lighting functions on your E-350. This uses "T" connectors that plug in behind the tail lights on your van.
After that you then need to install the Universal Installation Kit # ETBC7. This connects to your 4-Way and then includes wiring that runs up to the front of your van for the power and brake controller signals. You made need some extra wiring, part # 10-2-1, since your van is longer. Attached is a video demonstrating this with the P2 # 90885 brake controller.
The P3 installs with the following wires connecting to the following functions (see attached diagram):
Blue - 7-Way Output to Trailer
Black - 12V Power
White - Ground
Red - COLD Side of Stop Light Switch (only gets hot when brake pedal is pressed)
I have also linked a few helpful articles that you can reference for the installation.
