Okay I think this is the connector, but even from the company I found it from it’s still $88! I hate that 8” of wire on a connector costs as much as a circuit board backlit dash switch. https://connectorexperts.com/i-31648336-ce4451c.html

Sheesh! 🙄 thanks! 🙏

Do you know any of the details of the WPT-1822 plug? it's not shown in that ridiculously expensive Ford part. I found a connector company that might sell only the connector that we could wire ourselves. If I had a picture of the connector face I could see if they could get it.

Hi All, @Dave8311 is correct, I'm aware that the easiest option is the wireless and the RedArc, or "Your opinion brand X" I even mentioned it in the original post question. Please keep this on topic of OEM Controller integration. This is an exercise in "Can we" not "Should we"

This same trailer brake controller has been used on the F150s since 2021. There may be some of those in a yard. Do you know the part number of the plug that goes into the controller? I bet it's part of the dash wiring harness so it might not have it's own part number. Here's an F150 harness...

@ShadowDragon24 I just checked FORScan and it shows I also have the Trailer Brake Module "Present" I'll dig into my dash tomorrow or Monday to peek around.

@ShadowDragon24 the plug "for connecting aftermarket controllers" in the kick panel has 4 wires, I've also attached the wire color diagram for that TBC connector in the kick panel thanks to @Hootbro The C2830 Trailer Brake Controller Switch plug you attached is a completely different set of...

Okay, that's a serious bummer. Thanks for the info everyone.

Thank you! My truck did come with the $535 Trailer Tow Package. I'm a little surprised that no one tried using the OEM Ranger controller. Factory Trailer Brake Control for $73 Factory Dash Bezel for $41 Maybe this for a trial harness to the Control Even if this Factory Control did not work...

After reading 5-6 threads on this topic including reading every post on this massive thread: https://www.ranger6g.com/forum/threads/wires-for-trailer-brake-controller-24-ranger.11415/ I'm sorry to say it still didn't clearly answer what I would like to do. Everyone seems to go the RedArc path...
