Orceed Trailer Brake Controller Module for Dodge RAM 1500/2500/3500 2016–2018 — OEM-fit, restores proportional braking

Orceed's Trailer Brake Controller Module Kit (82215040AB) is a direct-fit replacement that restores integrated trailer braking control for compatible 2016–2018 Dodge RAM and 2019–2021 Ram 1500 Classic trucks.

When your factory trailer brake controller fails or your trailer braking needs updating, this Orceed module offers an OEM-style replacement engineered to match the original fit and electrical behavior. It replaces part numbers 82215040AB, 82215040AC, and 82215040, and is manufactured from durable components to withstand daily towing demands. The unit installs into the factory location and interfaces with the truck’s existing wiring, returning the ability to command trailer brakes automatically or manually from the cab.

How will this module affect towing performance?

Installing an exact-fit brake controller module re-establishes proper communication between your truck’s ABS/ESC system and the trailer’s electric brakes. That means smoother, predictable brake proportionality and a restored ability to manually boost trailer braking when needed. It helps maintain balanced stopping power across truck and trailer under a range of loads and grades.

• Restores proportional and manual trailer braking control
• Works with the truck’s factory ABS/ESC signals for consistent behavior
• Improves braking balance during downhill runs or heavy loads
• Reduces brake tug or uneven deceleration when properly installed

Is this unit a direct replacement and how easy is installation?

Yes — the Orceed kit is designed as a direct replacement for the original equipment numbers listed, matching mounting points and connector layouts. Many owners can swap the module using basic hand tools and a few minutes of connector work, but having the vehicle’s battery disconnected and following OEM procedures is recommended. If you’re uncertain, a technician or dealership can complete the swap quickly.
