You'll need a new harness part # 3024-P to go along with the Tekonsha Primus IQ part # TK90160 as there was a big enough change in 2015 for the Rams that they had to come up with a new fit for it.

A 3021-P will not fit on a 2016 Ram 1500, you have to go with the part # 3024-P.

There are so many possible configurations of trucks, including the 2015 Ram 1500, that it is entirely possible that some do not have the brake controller port or harness present. Typically this would be the case on the base model or work truck models…

Answer 2

The adapter needed to install your P2 brake controller #90885 in your 2015 Ram 1500 is the part #3024-P. This would not be the same as what you have for your 2010 Ram so you would need to go with the #3024-P.

Even if you don't have the factory brake controller installed on your 2017 Ram 1500 you shouldn't need to get it flashed to activate the controller. All you would need is the Prodigy P2 #90885 and the wiring adapter #3024-P that you saw in…

Answer 9

The 2015 Ram uses harness #3024-P for the P2 brake controller #90885. The 2-plug harness was for previous models and is not a fit for the 2015. It is the white connector that you have described up under the dash.
