2012 ram 1500 ST... how to install Tekonsha brake controller

[Mike Daley]

Hi guys just wanted to say that I am new here. I just bought my 2012 ram about a month ago and I am looking to install my Tekonsha P3 brake controller that I removed form my previous 2008 Cummins. I have done some research and cannot find a solid answer for my question so this is why I'm posting here. I found the 1 grey 4 pin connector under the dash.. So my question is, is this just a simple plug and play into that connector or do I need to do more? Some videos that I have seen on YouTube showed that there was 2 plugs under the dash but my truck only has 1 total. Hopefully someone can tell me everything I need to do to install this correctly. Thanks!

My 2010 is 1 connector plug and play under the dash by the ebrake it's just that easy.. I even drilled a hole in my brake controller holder and mounted it on the dash screw down there for the sake of not drilling into my dash. It's lower than I would like but I don't tow very often.

You'd need an adapter from the square grey connector to the flat connector on the brake controller. Part Number 3021-P from what I can tell which should be different from the adapter in the older 2500
