The best brake controller for your 2019 Ram 1500 is the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195.
This is an excellent proportional controller with multiple features that set it apart from other available units such as its easy-to-read LCD display that takes code deciphering out of the equation and storable settings that let you customize it for multiple trailers or even different driver preferences. In addition to those unique features though this particular unit is well known in large part to its overall durability and ease of use. This should be the last brake controller you purchase.
To install the Prodigy P3 on your 2019 Ram you just need the Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3024-P. One end of the harness will plug into the brake controller itself and the other end will connect to the factory port behind the dash of your Ram (see attached image).
I have also attached an installation video and the written manual for the P3 that you can also take a look at.
