Is there anything anyone can assist me in telling the dealer? I called them today and they called me back telling me there is nothing to update. They said after talking to Dodge Techs there is no brake controlelr for the 1500 thus no flash update. Well, I have the controller in the truck and it appears to be working fine. Anyways, is there anything special I can tell them to pull up or look up or anything for them to find it?

My dealer could not do anything with that code. But, he was able to get in and search for the module number of the brake controller. Found it, and did the install or whatever he did. Mine now shows in the EVIC if I hit the controller button. Or if I go into Vehicle Info, I can pull it up steady. It's there, they can do it, they just need to want to. And just and FYI, mine only had one connector, I had to hard wire in the other one, and they still got mine to work.
Maybe just ask if they can go in and search for the trailer brake module #, then add it to the system?

I know the guy who helped me, tried on his '09. Tied into all the same wires I did and got nothing. It would not interact with the canbus. Now, whether or not the canbus is different, or if a flash could maybe get it working I don't know. All I do know is the '10 guys who hardwire get them to fire up, the '09 guys get nothing.
Maybe, with this new Dodge flash that got the 2 mystery modules out of existance, maybe another '09 guy will try and maybe with the dealer updates get it to work.

Dealership with trailer brakes in stock
Newbie here so I haven't filled out my information but I have found a dealership in Springfield, MO that currently has 5 trailer brakes in stock. I just bought one from them. They typically wont sell them to other dealerships, just customers but they will ship it to you. I checked with my dealership and it is up to 719 on backorder with only 100 going out today so if you want one quick, pm me and I will send you the dealerships information.

2010 Ram Integrated Brake Controller
Could someone please give me the name and number of a dealer and if possible the techs name that did a trailer brake controller install and computer flash on their 2010 ram so my dealer could reference them if they have a problem getting it to install on the EVIC. thanks

It would be long distance, but here is mine. I can't recal the techs name though, I think it was Mike? He is the electrical tech/guru.
