Why?
I learned today that my connector for my hitch wasn't getting power because Ford doesn't install the relay and fuse for said connector but puts them in a bag in the glove box.
Why in the hell do they do that?

They have been doing it that way for a couple decades, dunno why.

doesn't the relay only charge the trailer battery? idk if this is right but i'd imagine the majority of trailers being pulled don't need the trailer battery charging option live on the 7 pin so it's one less unnecessary live wire for them. IDK, just a thought

Road salt up north can bridge from +12v to grd pin causing corrosion. The slight current can eat up the contacts. Something like the current flow atop a dirty battery.
