Parts Needed to Install 7-Way on 2018 Ford Edge Titanium  

Question:

Hi, I need to wire a 7-way to my 2018 ford edge. What products do you recommend? I would ideally like to find a hitch / wiring combo that the 7way can mount to the hitch for the cleanest possible install. 2018 Ford Edge Titanium AWD.

You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 118677.

So the easiest to install brake controller that also works really well is the Curt Echo Mobile part # C51180. Basically this just plugs into an active 7-way and once you sync it to your phone it's ready to go. This brake controller is proportional which means it senses the amount of deceleration your tow vehicle is applying and applies the trailer brakes in a relative way.

To convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller only requires the 7-way adapter kit part # ETBC7L. The 4-way of this plugs into the 4-way of your vehicle and once you run the included wiring and breaker up to the vehicle's positive battery post it's active enough to allow the Echo to function. This saves you from having to hardwire in a brake controller which requires tapping into the brake signal of your vehicle and running a few other wires too.
