New to me 2002 F350 V10. Im the 3rd owner and the 2nd owner only had it for 3 months before he found a diesel he really wanted and quickly sold to me. But the 1st owner was a retired 80 year old gent who took really good care of truck servicing at dealer regularly (records kept) He towed a 5th wheel for camping cause bed still shows remnants of the hitch but no clue how heavy. The truck has a brake controller which I saw immediately but when I really looked under I noticed this chip. Im confident its a tuner chip to help his towing but is there anyway you gents can help me figure out which manufacturer so I can dig into what he had programmed? My towing needs are 4k lb fishing boat then 9k toy hauler. Thanks for the help.

That’s one of those cheap anti theft devices, it’s just a jumper plug that when removed the truck won’t start.
