The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 7-Way Trailer Connector # 118283 that you referenced does have the 12 volt accessory circuit active so you will be able to put a maintenance charge on your dump trailer battery while towing and does have the brake output circuit present but you will need a brake controller installed as well to activate the trailer brakes. Basically the 7-way has the wiring present but you need the brake controller to actually determine how much voltage to deliver to the trailer brakes to slow it down.

For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P3 Brake Controller part # 90195. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes. This will be the last brake controller you buy as it is incredibly reliable, works, well and is easy to use. It can easily be transferred to future vehicles as well.

You'll also need the install harness part # 22292 to connect from the brake controller to the port under your dash. See attached install video.
