It sure will!

The Curt Echo isn't vehicle specific, so it'll work with just about any vehicle. The only vehicle we've found that they do not work well on are motorhomes, as their length and interior partitions interrupt the signal between the unit and the smart phone being used to run the brake controller.

As long as the 7-way on your Explorer is functional, the Curt # C51180 Echo will work great for you. I've linked you to a demonstration video, where my buddy Dave will walk you through how the Echo works.
