This
is the second video showing the final steps required to install the Tekonsha Prodigy brake
controller on the 2006 Ford Ranger truck. It can sound like a lot of work but finish
watching the video, you will see it really is not as hard as it may sound. You will see
where the brake controller is actually mounted in the drivers area and how the connections
to the battery are made OK, we are inside the cab now, and typically
we want to look for a knockout or grommet of some sort that we can route our wires through without having to drill a hole. Unfortunately
on this vehicle I do not see any such knockout or grommet so we are going to actually drill
out a 1/2 inch hole through the firewall here. I have already picked the spot out which is
kind of hard to see, but you definitely want to make sure you pick a spot that there is
nothing on the other side that you will drill through such as wiring components, anything
of that sort. So I am going to go ahead and drill that out and then we will route the
wires through the firewall. I went ahead and drilled my hole for the wires that are going to run through the firewall
for the brake controller. I have the brake controller in hand here, the Prodigy, as you
can see here is the four wires that will be coming out the back of it.
