Brake controller pigtail

I just bought a 2006 3500 Megacab. I'm in need of the pigtail harness that goes between the truck wiring and the brake controller. It should have been included with the truck when new, but who knows where it ended up.

Any ideas where to find one?

Locally, most any trailer/camper place as well as the dealer should have one.

Do one last search of the truck before ordering it. The previous owner might have stashed it anywhere.

The truck just comes with a plug if has the tow package. It's up under the parking brake attached to that computer junk.


The brake controller company will sell you or give you the pig tail.



As a note though, my truck didn't come with a tow package so I had to wire up the 7 pin in the rear bumper and wire up that plug up under the dash. If it isn't wired up right take it to someone who knows what they are doing and reference another truck, took my mechanic about 30 mins to get it hooked up and I got the plug from the dodge dealership.
