I just bought a 2022 Dodge Ram 2500 tradesman 6.4 Hemi Gas . I took it to the dealership for a recall and asked them about adding a trailer brake controller and switch. They told me that there was not one available for my truck And I would have to use an aftermarket. Looking under the dash it appears that I have Two 4 pin connectors Instead of I believe Is the 12 pin connector and one 4 pin connector. I was wondering if anybody has run into this. It's hard for me to believe that the factory would install a hitch a 7 pin connector and Towing button and a spot for the trailer brake controller and switch And Not make a controller and switch for this model. Any suggestions would be welcomed - thank you.

Thank you very much for the reply but I went with an aftermarket.
Got tired of researching it and trying to find the right one. I did check with another dealer and they told me the same thing. It appears there were some differences And was told to go with aftermarket.

I had trouble with the integrated system on a 2022 2500. Purchased a Autowbrake system from E-Trailer. This system is independent of the tow vehicle.
