Question:
I looked under the dash looking for the brake controller connection and cound not find it found a blue 5-pin, 6-slot connector instead. Could you tell me where to find my brake controller connection

The connector on the 2007 Dodge Ram is blue but is not like the one you have found. Instead, take a look at the picture I added that shows its location and what it looks like. Also take a look at the video I have linked which will help to locate and identify the correct connector. The one you are looking for will have 4 pins.
If your truck did not come with a factory 7-Way trailer connector then the truck will not have the connector for a brake controller. A brake controller will need to be hardwired in using # ETBC7. If it does not have a 4-Way trailer connector you will also need to add # 119178KIT first, and then install an ETBC7.
