Brake Controller Plug Location on a 2014 Coachmen Freelander with Factory 7-Way Trailer Connector
Updated 09/04/2024 | Published 11/21/2019
Question:
Is the 2014 Coachmen Freelander pre-wired for a brake controller? If so, where? It has a tow package and 7pin plug already installed.

The connector that you found under your dash is actually the OBD-II port which is why it doesn't quite match up with a brake controller adapter, like part # 3034-P which fits Tekonsha and Draw-Tite brake controllers.
Typically we find on motorhomes that the brake controller plug is up under the driver's side dash, next to the steering column, or under the driver's seat. From what I could find it looks like your 2014 Coachmen Freelander was built on a 2013 Ford E-350 chassis. If you skip to 7:15 minute mark on the linked installation video of the Prodigy P2 # 90885 and the adapter # 3034-P you can see that the plug on this 2013 E-350 cargo van was behind the center console area. I'm not sure if this would hold true for your motorhome but it's definitely worth checking out.
The Prodigy P2 is a great brake controller but I do recommend going with the newer P3 # 90195 model instead because it is much more user friendly with the LCD screen than the P2 was.

Hi, I have the same 2014 coachmen freelander except mine is on the Chevy chassis. It came with the harness for the brake controller but have zero idea where it plugs into. The harness that Chevy provided is on end flat plug 5 wires other end has two separate smaller plug 1,with 3 wires and the other one has two wires. The harness itself is about 6 feet long. The harness also has fittings to attach it to the vehicle at different points. I’m stuck I can’t find anything that looks like this would plug into. It does have factory tow package. Thank you Mike Lawrence
