Default Brake controller
Where do I plug the harness into the truck at? 2008 screw

Then you guess the fuse box needs a relay added to it as well.

There's a plug right up under the drivers side dash right knee area.. and yes you will need to add the relay.

And it will need to be programmed by the dealer (don't know that FORScan can turn it on for a 2008).

I think in the older models you also have a fuse you need to install in addition to the relay.
