Plug-In Curt Brake Controller Adapter for 2024 Ram 1500 & What Controllers Does it Fit
Question:
I just want to know if the Curt plug-in adapter will fit my 2020 Ram 1500? Also, what brake controllers does it work with?

Expert Reply:
For your 2024 Ram 1500, the correct Curt brake controller wiring harness is the Curt Custom Wiring Adapter for Trailer Brake Controllers # C51458.
This will give you a simple plug-and-play brake controller wiring harness (keep in mind this will not work if you have the OEM brake controller), and here are the brake controllers that this adapter works with:
- Curt Spectrum Trailer Brake Controller # C51170
- Curt TriFlex NEXT Trailer Brake Controller # C24VV
- Curt Discovery NEXT Trailer Brake Controller # C84VV
- Curt Venturer NEXT Trailer Brake Controller # C74VV
I really like either the Spectrum for its easy to use, hidden control knob so I'd go with that option.
