Installing Trailer Brake Controller on 2020 Ford Transit T250
Question:
Looking for a brake controller system for my 2020 Ford Transit T-250. The trailer has electric brakes. I see that several brake controllers will work for us. My issue is that it is unclear if there is a quick connect cable connector that you sell and if it is compatible.

For a brake controller for your 2020 Ford Transit T250 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. It can easily be transferred to future vehicles as well.
There isn't a quick install brake controller port under the dash of your vehicle. You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # C56327.
From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. I attached an install video for this product as well it's on a 2018 but will be the same.
