Expert Reply:
Installing a 7-way and brake controller in your 2010 Ford Expedition is relatively easy but you'll need three things. You'll need a brake controller like our very popular and great value # TK63VR, install harness # 3035-P which plugs in under your dash, and a 7-way adapter part # 37185 which you'll run a single wire to a harness already present at the rear frame rail of your vehicle.
See attached picture for the connections that get made at the rear of the vehicle.
