Default Install and thoughts on Brake Controller 2010 Laramie

Okay, I researched and followed all the advise on this forum. Found 2 plugs on the harness. Went to the dealer and ordered the Brake Controller (Run AG , Latest one) and Bezel.
Install took all of 5 minutes to put in since someone posted how to do it. (Thanks).

Then took truck to dealer and had them update the computer to let it know a controller was installed. EVIC displays when trailer is hooked up and when braking is occurring in percentage...This took about 15 minutes.

Tested the controller by towing a Rockwood Roo23ss HTT ( Over 6000lbs loaded.) Before pulling I read the calibration for the controller in a pdf file I found on it from Dodge. Everything seemed to work fine. Re adjusted the gain as we drove for a smoother brake action. The manual slider works better than most I have used...

All in all a really easy install and the Brake Controller works Great!

Could you give dealer name and number? I bought one and installed on 2010 and dealer could nnot make the computer recognize it. I would love to have the factory controller for the clean look

03vulcan - I work for dodge and have installed many of these. The dealer has to add the option to your vehicle, then restore vehicle configuration
