brake control module

we bought a class c 2018 ford E450 and it came with the trailer package, but we need to purchase a brake controller module. can anyone advise us of this. such as where we can purchase one, my husband is going to install it. thank you so much..
  • We have the P-2 Prodigy.
    There's a cable to plug it in, I found it in our 2015 E-450.

  • we bought one for our E450 from the dealer that we bought our motorhome. my husband installed it. and it works great..
  • X4 on the prodigy. Most newer vehicles have wiring that allows the controller to be mated to the vehicle. Check with a local mechanic or mobile RV service. The dealer will charge way too much for sure. It's a chassis issue not an RV one. As soon as you say Rv the price doubles.
  • I agree if you go after market, get the P3.

    However. You could check on getting a Ford factory controler installed. They work great. Will cost a little more though. But worth it.
  • I would look into a Tekonsha P3 controller. They make a harness for many vehicles that plug into the fuse block.
    Quick lok on their site did not show for 2018 E450.
