The factory plug to plug in the brake controller is hidden a little more on the 2005 Ford F-250 Super Duty. You will have to look behind a black pocket beneath the radio in the center of the dash. I have included a link to a video that shows where the plug is and how to get to it when installing the Hopkins Agility Brake Controller and Wiring Harness, # HM47294 and # HM47735.
