I have a Dodge Durango SRT Once in the wiring harness, I could not find the wire that I was instructed to connect to. Everything else is connected and operating fine. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

According to the install instructions for the Tekonsha 7-way part # TK22113 that fits your 2018 Dodge Durango the blue wire gets routed through the grommet in the floor on the driver side into the rear cargo area and then routed behind side cargo trim panels and above head liner where you'll locate a white wire with a yellow stripe which it connects to.

I also attached a couple pictures that show where you'll find the connection point as well.
