Expert Reply:
I would be happy to help you set your 2021 Ford F-150 up with a 7-way connector and a brake controller. Since you do not have the towing package you are going to need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller - 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat - 10 Gauge Wires item # ETBC7. The kit includes a pre-wired 7- and 4-way trailer connector that mounts easily at the rear of your F-150 with an included bracket. This kit is designed for use on a vehicle with an existing 4-way flat trailer connector and plugs directly into it. I have linked an installation video and attached a picture so you can see what the 7-Way connector will look like after it is installed.
