For installing a brake controller in your 2011 Dodge Ram 1500 the correct install harness is the part # 3021-P which we have confirmed as a fit. This would be the adapter you'd need that would plug into the connector you found.

If you check out the install video I attached below you can see where you will find the install harness on your truck.

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. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes. This will be the last brake controller you buy. It can easily be transferred to future vehicles as well.

Vehicle manufacturers do not always match the color of their wires to the brake controller wires. The part # 3021-P is still the correct harness as the functions of the wires do match.
