This thread..... Got me cracking up big time. I had no clue these were even available. I bet you guys save a ton of money by modding one of these as opposed to your real truck. Im picking one up next time I see a walmart. It should make modifying my truck less temping.

I ran all external wires on mine as a quick fix. Worked excellent from Georgia to Washington state. After I find a house ill rip these wires out and have a dealer install those pig tails and control module in the truck. Gbritt89 I'm glad you posted that document and part number. As far as the...

Im going to rip my truck apart and check for this module

Went to 2 different dealers today and confirmed that the XL models do come with the trailer brake control module. But neither dealer could figure out why the XLs dont have the 4 wires for an actual brake controller. If anyone knows what the "towing pack 1" consists of I would much appreciate it.

Well sh!t, if that's all it takes then I was worried for nothing. Please let us know if it all works out. Wiring is my kryptonite and I have been dreading the 7 pin installation

I agree. Atleast we know now.

Yeah that's what I did as well. The parts guy told me that was the specific item number. I kept saying its for a f150 while we were on the phone but he kept insisting it was for the ranger.

I was told by the parts department that my truck has this specific module. He had to check my vin to make sure.

Module. It looks like this

Thanks for the input guys, that's sucks that it's nonexistent, but atleast I can stop looking. I wonder why I have a trailer brake control module but no trailer brake control wires?

Thank you for showing me a picture of yours. Unfortunately I have ALL my tape removed. They just arent there for some reason. Ive probably spent a good 2 hours on my back sifting through every single wire and making sure it leads somewhere.

I havent seen anything that looks close to that. If I cant find it before Sunday ill just take it to ford.

Yes, it's there. I forgot to mention that I do not have the tow package. I called ford and gave them the last 8 of my vin and they said I do have the trailer brake control module. I just cant find these damn wires. Ive almost unwrapped the entire wire harness. Theres literally no electric tape...

Anybody's input would be very much appreciated. This is getting out of hand!

Just talked to a ford rep. He said there might actually be a plug in now for a brake controller and told me to start searching for it instead of the 4 wires. Has anybody heard of them swapping over to an actual plug in?

This is not good. I have a 4k lb car i need to pull in the next few months.

I did not. I was reading on another thread that even if you dont have the tow package these wires still exist.

Sure thing. There is no solid blue wire or black/green. There is a purple/white wire but it leads to something else. There is also some wires that are spliced together already but I'm not really sure where they lead. Every wire looks like it has a purpose here.

Gents, I have read through almost every thread on here stating that the trailer brake control wiring is in the left kick panel. I cant seem to find it. I have traced every wire and none end up in pigtails. I have the dash completely apart and searched in other areas as well. I have a build date...

589FAB, I have been reading through your build thread, and it's awesome. The hidden winch behind the stock bumper is genius. I also see that you dont have you factory bed anymore. Would you be willing to part with it? I'm working on a crew cab long bed conversion. Sorry didnt mean to jack your...
