I have a 2019 F150 XL and I wonder if the cable/gray connector will be behind the empty slot as a standard feature.

You might be able to reach under the dash and feel if it is there. If not, you can take off the panel and be able to see the connector without taking apart the front of the dash. Otherwise, a cheap horoscope will do.

Thanks Mckey .... Besides not understanding the " Otherwise, a cheap horoscope will do" part, if the cable is not there, is there an option to get it?

Likely meant borescope.

Thanks babock ... I read it as "try your luck" with the stars

Horoscope might have worked too.... lol Yea I meant boroscope... I think my web browser is autocorrecting what I type into forum replies now... I've always had the connector in all my trucks over the years. I don't see a separate part number or anything for it on tasca, but if someone has better access to see wiring diagrams that might help.

The problem I'm having is the controller works manually (pinching the slider) but not when using the brake pedal.
I've spoken to Ford tech and they say if the truck recognizes the controller (able to adjust gain and other options then it's not a matter of programming.
Anybody have an idea on this one?

Did you use Forscan to activate the controller by changing 2 settings??
