The 2014 Ford F-53 chassis on your Thor Ace RV should have a plug location somewhere near the emergency brake pedal. I have attached an image that shows this location and what the connector will look like. For a plug-in wiring adapter, you will the Tekonsha # 3035-P. One end of this adapter will plug into the brake controller and the other end will connect with the built-in harness mentioned above.
For a trailer brake controller, I highly recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 # 90885. This is a great proportional brake controller that will activate the trailer or tow-dolly brakes at the same time and with the same intensity that you apply to them in your RV. The controller features an easy to read LED display and has continuous diagnostics to alert you to any potential issues. The P2 is well known for its reliability and ease of installation.
