Adding a 7-Way Wiring Connector to a 1993 Ford F-150
Question:
I have a 1993 ford f 150 which never had a trailer wiring hook up and I need to know does it come from the factory with a hook up plug or do I need to hard wire it and if need to hard wire it any video available for part 20023?

While I'm not sure if the wiring for a 7-Way is pre-ran for your 1993 Ford F-150, I can say that if it does exist you will find it at the back of your pickup typically attached to the frame. You will need to use a circuit tester like part # PTW2979 to verify which wires you need to connect the Draw-Tite # 20023 to.
If that wiring isn't there you can use the T-One # 118316 which tees in behind your bumper on the driver's side, and then install the Universal Wiring Kit # ETBC7 for a fully functional 7-Way. I have attached some sample installation videos and instructions for you to reference for this.
Either way I recommend using the No-Drill Mount Bracket # 118136 to hang your 4-Way/7-Way connector next to your trailer hitch receiver.
