Since you do not have any trailer wiring at all on your 2014 Mercedes Sprinter you would need to start with a 4-way. For that you would need the part # 119250KIT. We only have install videos on cars, but they will give you the general install process. Wiring colors will be different.

From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well.

For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best-selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup.
