Why not just add a electric brake controller, most motorhomes are pre-wired for the controller.

sewerdog-

Here's a link to an iRV2 thread for you. Look at post #6 for a picture. You may want to send a private message to "1ciderdog" for details on his installation.

Here's a link to a Google search.

You can also call the folks at etrailer for their help.

We also have an 04 Journey
Had to pull the top of the dash cover off to find the plug. It was wrapped in with the wiring harness. No way to see it without pulling the dash cover.
Easy hook up after that
Went with a Prodigy.
Works great
