In US left hand drive models, the connector for the brake controller is located behind the glove box, as you can see in the install video I've linked for you. We've had no experience with Australian market Explorers, but if the plug is not located there, check by the emergency brake pedal or above where the driver's left knee would be which are all common locations to find the plug. The plug will be gray in color.
