The connector on the 2007 Dodge Ram is blue but is not like the one you have found. Instead, take a look at the picture I added that shows its location and what it looks like. Also take a look at the video I have linked which will help to locate and identify the correct connector. The one you are looking for will have 4 pins.

If your truck did not come with a factory 7-Way trailer connector then the truck will not have the connector for a brake controller. A brake controller will need to be hardwired in using # ETBC7. If it does not have a 4-Way trailer connector you will also need to add # 119178KIT first, and then install an ETBC7.
