The connectors are in all the trucks, used or not.

I added the OEM controller and the controls switch and made BCM changes with AlfaOBD to add to my truck that did not have the OEM. Works just like it should.
You also may need to add fuses and / or relays if they aren't there already.

You could also just plug a controller like a Tekonshka P3 into the harness and it will add electric braking to the truck (I had one in mine before the OEM and am now sellig it)

So as @04fxdwgi stated you'd have to purchase the OEM trailer brake controller, physically install it and then activate it through Alpha OBD. I did mine and it is just like it came from the factory.

I purchased mine off a ram dealer selling on ebay $180.00 the hardest part is installing the controller under the dash.
