2022 Gladiator Trailer Brake Controller

[Brekka]

Has anyone with the '22 Gladiator successfully installed the Mopar trailer brake controller (82215652AB)? The part says it is compatible with 20-21 MY, but not 22. Contacted the dealer today, and they said the same, "Jeep hasn't supplied a trailer brake controller for the 22's yet".

Happy to be the first to try, unless they've changed plugs in the dash my guess is the parts will be the same, but figured I'd ask the group.

It should work. There is nothing special about the Mopar controller. It does not integrate with the truck computers.

I have the same Jeep and been checking on it also. I do not know for sure but I think the reason it does not fit 2022 is because where they mount it there is a 12 volt power point in that spot. Just a guess.

Mounting the Mopar brake controller knob requires removal of the 12 volt outlet in the center section of the dash. That is why I chose the Curt Spectrum controller over the Mopar controller. I need the 12 volt outlet to charge other items.

I know, old thread, but if I use the mopar controller is there the supporting wiring behind the dash to hook it up, the jeep was ordered with the trailer/tow option if that means anything

There will be a connection under the dash on the upper left side for a brake controller.

Thanks, I figured there was, Im actually probably going to use the Redarc controller more than likely
