Trailer Wiring Recommendations to Install Brake Controller on 2007 Ford E250 without Factory Wiring
Question:
I looked at the video, are the electric brakes included in the connector, looks like it is only the tail and brake lights. I reviewed the brake controller install but it did not go into the actual trailer hookup.

Expert Reply:
The Curt Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring # C56020 that you referenced does not include the wiring to activate trailer brakes.
In order to activate the trailer brakes you will need to install the # C56020 and a Brake Controller Installation Kit # ETBC7. This kit comes with everything you would need to install a brake controller which will activate the trailer brakes.
I attached some helpful links for you to check out also.
