Has anyone done any research as to if the wiring is there for the 7 pin connector on all the Mavericks? I would like to add the brake controller and the 7 pin connector.

Are you aware of the bluetooth brake controller?Has anyone done any research as to if the wiring is there for the 7 pin connector on all the Mavericks? I would like to add the brake controller and the 7 pin connector.
If one model has it they all have it. I cant speak to this one, but every other ford truck, if they do not come with the EBC they have the pigtail under the dash to add it.Has anyone done any research as to if the wiring is there for the 7 pin connector on all the Mavericks?

And the more important question, why do you need this? I very well might, but I know why I might.Has anyone done any research as to if the wiring is there for the 7 pin connector on all the Mavericks? I would like to add the brake controller and the 7 pin connector.
7 - pin vs 4 - pin flat connector. 7 pin gives you Aux charging, backup lights, and trailer brake control while the 4 pin gives you the basic wiring (running, L/R turn, ground). If you have the 7 pin connector on the Maverick and only have 4 wires on the trailer, there is an adapter for that.And the more important question, why do you need this?

I bet there is.You'll need
1 NZ6Z-15436-B Trailer 4 and 7 pin connector
1 NZ6Z-19H332-A Trailer Brake Module
1 ML3Z-14529-AC Trailer Brake Control Switch
The issue with it is there is nothing on the parts diagrams that show if the harness is already prewired for these items. So you could get them and there could be places for them, but no electrical ready for it.
I was asking the op why he needs the 7 pin. The uses for a 7 pin on a non 4k truck are minimal at best. I have one of those uses. Does the op? I wire all my trailers with brakes......even the small ones7 - pin vs 4 - pin flat connector. 7 pin gives you Aux charging, backup lights, and trailer brake control while the 4 pin gives you the basic wiring (running, L/R turn, ground).

I see your point for the FWD's. I think if someone would have the need for a trailer brake controller, you might as well get the reasonably priced Tow package which includes the other upgrades, and in my opinion will likely extend the life of the engine.I was asking the op why he needs the 7 pin.

Need the 2.0 and the 4k package for those. I need the hybrid with the receiver hitch for occasional towing. The 4k is not reasonable. It adds substantial costs.I see your point for the FWD's.

That's what I like about the Maverick. So many people have so many different needs for this truck and it fits the bill for most. In this case we know the fuse box supports aftermarket brake controller so this would be a perfect solution.Need the 2.0 and the 4k package for those.
