There is a brake controller port on your Ford-based Forest River Class A motorhome but it is tucked away behind the instrument cluster and can be tough to find. Ford offers a document, Q-206, that can help you locate it. I also included a photo of the chassis to assist; this shows the placement of the port within the chassis wiring.
To connect a controller such as the excellent Prodigy P3 # 90195 you will use quick-connect harness # 3035-P. The P3 offers easy set-up, user-friendly features and has proven to be exceptionally reliable.
