We have put together a chart for matching vehicle wiring to the standard 4 colors on the brake controllers. The colors will wire as follows: white/red to black, blue/white to red, green/black to white, and blue to blue. I will include a link to the page with this chart on it. It is toward the middle of the page. All you have to do is follow the wire color chart and make sure your connections are good and your brake controller should work fine.

If your Dodge has the port connected to the wires and you are looking for a connector to use, you need part # 20261. You would match the colors for the wires on the back of the brake controller and the wire leads for the connector, then plug the connector into the port.
