I wanted to install a brake controller my self. Can anyone give me the 411 on how to do this. My truck came with tow package. I have both trailer plugs already, just no controller. Thanks for you help

 

First you need a a controller, I have a PRODIGY Brake Controller. I like it, a lot rated up to four axles and has 3 different boost settings.

You can pick one up from here,

If you order from them you get a free harness that allows you to plug in the controller to the truck with out having to use the one that you got with the truck with the lose ends on it.

The plug on the truck for the brake controller is right behind the OBI II port behind the dash. You have to lay on the floor to see it, it should be taped to one of the main wire looms running across the dash.

Here is were the plug is




Here is were I mounted the controller on mine. there is actually a steel plate were you can screw your bracket to and it works out perfect.

 

Sweet! Thanks man!

You ever wack your shin on that thing having it mounted right there??

 

Nope i never have, it may look like it is kind of in the way in the pic but it really is not.

 

I have the same one mounted in the same spot. I wear cowboy boots a lot and sometimes the top of them will get snagged from under my jeans on the boost lever but it doesnt really bug me. Probably the best spot for it.
