I'm installing my Ford trailer brake controller and while under the dash I found the Smart Data Link Module (SDLM) (it incorporates the OBD port) just hanging under the dash with the adapter in the photo hooked up to it. It plugs into the SDLM and has an OBD connector that is attached where the SDLM would normally mount. It looks like a poorly installed aftermarket add-on. The adapter connector mount doesn't have the same bolt spacing as the original, so it was only held on with one screw. The adapter has an extra connector (or two?) coming out of it, that was just twist-tied in place. I took the adapter out and put the SDLM back in place (the adapter can still be connected if needed).
What the heck is this thing?
