Expert Reply:
The harness you need to plug your Hopkins brake controller into the port under the dash of your 2013 Ford E-350 is the part # HM47855 and you'll also need the # 37185 which will convert your 4-way to a 7-way. You'll also need to connect a few wires at the frame rail at the rear of the van to the adapter as well.
For more info on the frame connections check out the help article I attached to this page that covers this.
