What I might do is just take the truck to a trailer place and have a aftermarket controller put in instead of the Ford one. I'm told that will fix the problem.
We had to have a plugin installed in the bed wall, because the DT cord can't reach to the bumper factory installed one. Never had a problem until this week. Our F450 has given us the Alarm sound & says Trailer Wiring Disconnet (or something to that effect) a few times when braking. Weird though since we haven't had the trailer connected for nearly 2 mos.
