Designed for your Ram 2500 with a factory tow package, this wiring harness plugs into the quick-connect harness on your Ram 2500 and plugs into your Hopkins brake controller for easy installation.
Features:
To install your Hopkins electric brake controller, you need to connect the wiring of the controller to your vehicle. Certain auto manufacturers offer pre-wired options, typically known as tow packages, wherein wiring is run for you from the dash to the trailer connector on the back of your vehicle. When this is done, a port is installed at your dash so that you can easily plug in a brake controller.
This adapter plugs into the port on your vehicle's built-in brake control wiring harness. The port is located underneath the dash, to the left of the steering column, near the emergency brake pedal.
No hardwiring is required to install this adapter. After you plug it into the factory port, you simply plug the other end of the adapter directly into your electric trailer brake controller. Because there are no wires to connect, installation is not permanent. You can unplug and remove your brake controller at any time to transfer it to another vehicle or securely stow it away.

The Hopkins Insight was so easy to install using the pre made cable for my 2106 RAM 1500. It took me less than 10 minutes once I chose the places to put the display and control and watched the video if the install(that was perfect) . Since I have a 2WD model the space where 4WD control would go made a perfect spot. I was going to have the dealer install the integrated Brake control for 600 bucks until I saw the Hopkins insight. For less than $$$ bucks with the pre made cable and I am happy I went with the Hopkins.
The part performed as it should. Katie D took the time and asked a "rookie camper" all the right questions in order to get me the right item! Thank you ETrailer and thank you Katie D!
Part Fit perfectly Thank You
This is the first time I have used a brake controller, and it really impressed me. The proportional braking worked very well depending on the braking power needed, and it was great to move the display and the control to spaces that were convenient while leaving the brains tucked away and out of sight
As always a very quick delivery. With a litte bit of pre planning only took ten min to install. Works awesome.
Great item used for my trailer brake controller installation in my RAM truck. Easy installation, and super fast shipping.
2015 Ram 1500 install was easy plug is located to right of gas pedal. On the 15 a test light will not show a brake light signal from factory plug. You have to use a multimeter to find the brake power. Plug was right and easy to install.
Harness does fit (new body DT ) 2020 1500 ram trucks. Was able to mount old Hopkins Impulse Brake Controller to existing screw at bottom of kick panel without drilling extra holes. Easy install.
My wiring adaptor was delivered quickly and with tracking. Pretty cool! Nice wiring and my trailer brakes work as they should behind my 2015 Ram. Thanks George!!
Darn good business to deal with! Ordered part, received several emails showing status of order, the stinking postal service sent it to Alabama instead of Pennsylvania, but that isn’t etrailers fault. Very pleased with their customer service. Highly recommend!!!
Well let me just say, for this being a Hopkins product one end of this plug didn't fit my Hopkins quest break control unit , but the other end did fit my truck. So with a little modification to the Hopkins end I was able to make the connection without cutting into the harness and it works great ! Thanks George J and everyone etrailer.
The product price was reasonable, the shipping was fast, and the installation went very smoothly due to a high quality product and great instructions.
Thank You
Found the right part for the right application and it arrived 3 days before they promised.
Plugged it into the truck and amazing what trailer brakes can do!
Thanks for having the right part for a great price.
I purchased this Hopkins connector for the brake control in my Ram truck. It's original Hopkins equipment and an excellent price.
It is the best money I've spent My last truck did not have a a port just wires so I had to splice them together. Which is no big deal just time consuming. But the money I spent on this thing is well worth it. 5 seconds compared to 20 minutes is a no brainer. No wires to sudder, no worries of setting carpet on fire, garenteed to work, nd no wires to hide. Great company great product
No matter what my trailer needs are etrailer has it and shipped out quickly. Will continue to use and recommend etrailer to all.
20 minute install. Everything worked perfect first time. shipping was fast and the price was right.
Great product and fast shipping.
Makes hooking up to the Ram factory brake wiring a two second job, well worth the price.
Plug and play no problems great product !!!
Easy to install and works as intended with our truck and travel trailer.
This wiring attachment was perfect! Made the installation so easy, you would think a professional did it
