Does Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Work With 2022 Ford Ranger w/ Tow Package & Safety Features
Updated 10/19/2022 | Published 10/17/2022
Question:
If the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller is installed on a 2022 Ford Ranger w/ Tow Package, as shown in the 2019 video, will adaptive cruise and all other safety features still operate as designed. Also will I need to run a wire to the 3rd brake light terminal as I have seen in other videos. Thank you

Expert Reply:
Your 2022 Ford Ranger with safety features like forward collision can still use the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR.
Those safety features will still work in your Ranger with the # RED44FR installed, they just won't activate the trailer brakes. A wire to your third brake light will not be necessary to run; I have added a link below to a video showing an install on a Ranger which you can follow.
