Electronic Brake Contoller

AnyOne installed the electronic brake controller in an F-250 superduty? It appears to be a simple task, but I am a little apprehensive.

I would imagine that its very simple on your truck as it was a piece of cake for me. Just go to a camping/trailer store and get the plug adapter. Solider (sp?) the wires to the adapter plug and then plug it in. Be sure to spend the time to level the controler as the instructions say.

Take the panel off under the dash and there is a plug taped to the back of the dash support on the right side. There should be a matching "pig tail" in the glove box. Wire the pig tail to your new Prodigy controller and stick the mounting braket to the underside of the dash (below your cubby hole) with 3M double sided automotive tape. Done. No leveling needed with the Prodigy.

Prodigy makes an adapter that plugs straight into your truck and into the controller. There should be no need to splice any wiring.

If you have the "pig tail" that came with the truck, there is no need to buy the "adapter that plugs straight into your truck". It is a four wire nut job from there. Hardly worth the extra $13 harness.
