1. Locate the vehicle’s electric brake control
harness. The harness will be located under the
dash near the center console on most vehicles.
The harness for the Ford Full Size Van is
located underneath and left of the steering
column. The harness for the Ford Explorer/
Mercury Mountaineer is located behind the
vehicle glove box on the Passenger side. There
will be a 6-pin connector that mates with the
one on the adapter at the end of the harness.
2. Verify that there is battery power supplied to
the connector by carefully probing the connector
with a test light. This can also be accomplished
by following the wires to their source, ensuring
they do not dead end without connections
behind the instrument panel. For vehicle’s with
power supplied at this connector, proceed to
Step 4.
3. For vehicles with no power to the
electric brake control connector: Using
an electric brake control wiring kit, route all
wires as described in the wiring kit installation
instructions. Cut the vehicle connector’s battery
feed wire, allowing enough wire remaining to
connect the battery wire from the brake control
wiring kit using the butt connector supplied.
Cut the vehicle connector’s trailer brake wire,
allowing enough wire remaining to connect the
trailer brake wire from the wiring kit using the
supplied butt connector.
4. Plug the brake control adapter into the vehicle’s
electric brake control harness connector. Follow
all brake control manufacturer’s installation
instructions.
