Expert Reply:
Your 2018 Ford F-150 without the tow package and 7-way does have brake controller wiring currently so once you have the 7-way part # C56413 installed you'd be able to easily install a brake controller using the truck's factory wiring.
The P3 part # 90195 and the install harness part # 22292 would be a really great and easy to install option. This is the most advanced and easiest to use brake controller on the market so I recommend it highly.

My truck has only a 4 pin plug. I am interested in adding a 7 pin plug and a trailer brake controller. If I used part # C56413 to get a 7 pin, would that work with a Ford OEM brake controller?
