Brake Controller Installation Connector Location for 2007 Dodge Ram 1500
Question:
Im looking to buy the TK90160 brake controller for my truck. It is a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 4 wheel drive with the 5.7 liter V-8 engine. I have attached a picture of the jack under the dash. All online info says to use the 3020-P harness. It does not look like it will work with this jack. Can you recommend the correct harness for this jack please? Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks for including the photo, that really helps! So from what I can see in your photo, you have located the wrong connector. Look for the rectangular box mounted on the firewall behind the emergency brake pedal. The connector should be sitting right on top of that box at the rear, and it will be blue in color but there will be a single row of four pins, instead of the 6 shown in the photo you provided. As you mentioned, the Tekonsha # 3020-P is indeed the correct brake controller wiring harness that will be compatible with the # TK90160 Tekonsha Primus break controller you had mentioned.
I've provided a photo showing where the connector is located, as well as an installation video showing the connector being installed on a 2008 Dodge Ram 1500. The procedure on your truck would be identical.
