Towing 99 Ram 2500

[htarnoff]

I am upgrading to a 99 2500 from a 93. The 99 has the factory trailer towing package. My question is this: did Dodge put a pigtale harness (plug) under the dash for the brake controller like F*rd or was it still hard wired in 99?

There was one under the dash on my '98, pretty close to the brake pedal lever if I remember right. Paw around under there and you will find it.

Yep

Should be there if factory wired. It's a 4 pin plug under the dash - mine was taped on the left side (on the right if laying on your back) of the steering column. The plug was white and had a Red, White, Blue and Black wire in it.



If you need the harness Draw-Tite (pn: 18261) has them and so does Tekonsha (pn: 3020 or 3020p).



BTW - Be careful with the colors - Mine did not match to the same function as those on the brake control.

Hey Howard, it's there, as stated above.



Good luck with the new ride!

Thanks Everyone

Got the 99 home and yup, right where you all said it was. I gave my 2000 Durango to my daughter and pulled the Tekonsa out of it. I am going to assume that the plug is wired the same on the Ram. BTW... the Durango with a 360 V8, Trailer Tow Package and 3. 93 rear only sucked gas... can not pull worth a darn.
