Hooking up a trailer brake controller to a Dodge Ram pickup is a simple and straightforward process that can make hauling and towing your trailer much safer. This brake controller helps the brakes on the trailer respond quickly and efficiently whenever the brakes on the truck are applied, providing additional control and helping to prevent an accident or other mishap. By installing the brake controller, any driver of the truck can have the confidence you need when pulling a trailer.
The first step in connecting the brake controller to the Dodge Ram is to place the metal mounting bracket onto the truck dash. Then the brake controller itself needs to be wired up. The wiring harness needs to be carefully routed into the engine bay and air box, making sure no wires get tangled up in any moving parts. Once the wiring is routed, the brake controller should be firmly mounted on the bracket and connected with the wiring harness.
Finally, the brake controller must be connected to the trailer by running a wire from the controller to the trailer brakes. This is done via a set of four to seven-pin plugs running from the controller straight to the trailer. Make sure the connectors are correctly aligned and provide adequate tension for a secure connection. Once the wiring is secured, you're all done installing your trailer brake controller! With it, you can hit the road with confidence knowing your trailer is safe and secure.
