It sounds like you're trying to install a brake controller like the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 on your 2014 Ford Explorer, and it appears that your 2014 Ford Explorer's adapter plug does not have power going to it. This would be one of the cases that you'd need to hard wire your controller in to the vehicle. I have attached a video of the installation via hard wire of a brake controller on a similar 2014 Ford Explorer, but if your plug in is not showing power then this will be the only way to install a brake controller.
