Question:
I was wondering if you could tell me if my 2021 Ford Explorer ST is pre wired for the harness. Were contemplating renting a travel trailer which requires a brake controller. Thanks! R.M.R.

Yes, there is a wiring adaptor for your 2021 Ford Explorer ST with the factory 7-way that will plug directly into your cars wiring harness without any splicing. The great thing about the Redarc Tow-Pro is they have a few options for plug and play but this adaptor works specifically with your Explorers factory 7-way. The Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller item # RED24FR has a plug and play wiring harness item # RED87FR. The Redarc Tow-Pro is a proportional brake controller that automatically adjusts your trailer's braking based on deceleration of your Ford Explorer. The brakes activate immediately and have no pausing like time-delayed brake controllers. The control knob mounts on your dash and allows for fast and easy adjustment of braking power with turn of the dial.
