Location Of Factory Brake Controller Connector On 2016 Ram 1500
Updated 05/15/2020 | Published 07/19/2016
Question:
Is the factory plug located behind the trim for the radio? I called my dealer and they said thats where it should be but that makes no sense.

The factory plug for the brake controller on your 2016 Ram 1500 is located under the dash above the accelerator. You do not have to remove any trim panels on the truck to get to the connector.
I have attached a photo captured from an installation video for a brake controller on a 2016 Ram 1500. I have also attached a link to the installation video for a # 90195 brake controller and # 3024-P plug-in adapter you can check out. go to about the 3 minute 20 second mark and it is explained where the connector is on the truck.

I have probably the same setup. '16 1500 and same connector but my ST has integrated trailer brake control. Or so I think. The little squeeze lever is there on the console and the evic responds to that as well as I have the settings in my u connect. So what's the deal? Lol thanks!
