just bought a brand new class c fordE450. came with a tow package, do we still need to add a brake controller. .. called the dealer where we bought it. but they did not seem to know.. thank you
If it's prewired for towing, that's a bonus. Any Ford dealership should be able to quote you a price for the Ford factory brake controller, installed. There may even be a cutout somewhere on your dash for placing it. The factory units aren't cheap, but they integrate nicely with the rest of the ECM/ECU software. I added one to my F150 a few years ago, and it took about an hour to install it, because the F150 was also tow ready.
