Question:
I have a Draw-Tite 4 brake control. I want to attach it to a harness for an 01 F250 Super Duty. There are 4 wires on each. Red, black, blue and white. Can you tell me what colors go with each other?

Expert Reply:
All you would need to install your Draw Tite Activator IV part # 5504 in your 2001 Ford F250 is the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter # 3035-P. This harness will plug into the back of your brake controller and then into the port underneath your dash.
If there is a harness already plugged into that port on your vehicle with the colors you listed you would just need to match the wires from the # 5504 to those wires color by color. I attached an install video for the wiring adapter for you to check out also.
