The Hayes Blackbird Trailer Brake Controller HA81726 will use the Custom Wiring Adapter for Hayes Brake Controllers # HA81795-HBC for an easy fit in your 2017 Ram 1500. The harness is located underneath the dash, to the left of the steering column, taped to another harness near the emergency brake pedal. I've attached a video of a similar brake controller harness installation to assist with the location.

Alternatively you could hardwire it or use the universal adapter # HA81789-HBC.
