My wildtrak has the factory wiring under the car but needs the harness for the seven/four pin connector... where can I purchase it?

I’m not clear on what your current setup is. Do you have a 2024 Bronco that did NOT have the Trailer Tow package option when built (no hitch receiver and no 4/7pin wiring), then had an aftermarket hitch receiver added, but is still missing the wiring?

There is this 4/7-pin wiring harness, but Ford Accessories says it is only compatible with 2021-2023MY Broncos. https://accessories.ford.com/bronco...pin-trailer-hitch-wiring-harness-vp2dz15a416a

I dont need the whole kit. Just the wiring from the factory connector to a seven/four pin connector
This is the part number for 2021-2023 Broncos, and it should work for 2024 Broncos as well. But officially there is no standalone part for the 2024 Broncos, it's all part of that kit.

Part No. 9U5Z-14489-MAA

Obligatory warning that the wiring will not be 100% functional without the Trailer Tow module—which again is part of the kit I linked above.

I've been following a lot on adding a hitch and wiring and it confuses me. On the 2024MY, we have wiring that terminates right where the hitch would be installed (didnt come with a hitch). Whats the point of pre-wiring it all the way to the end, if you have to loop back and install a controller in the passenger cargo area? What actually are the wires at the Hitch location for then?
I have a curt hitch that i installed and i saw that there are some adapters for the round plug that ford uses in the prewiring to get it into a mounted harness, but i dont know if anything else is required. That ford kit has the mount for the plug, a harness adapter and a controller.

Mine did not come with the hitch package.. I installed a Curt hitch myself.
I dont need the brake controller, I dont plan on towing anything. I just want to be able to plug in lights. Say for a bike rack or something like that.

I have the same needs as you, were you able to figure it out?
