You can add it. You have a TRM now BUT you have to replace the TRM with one in the complete package you can’t add trailer brake with only adding the pincher controller.

if you need help I can do it for you .. the 24 lightning uses the same trailer brake package as 21-23 ICE trucks

the only possibility I can see is they are trying to add the 24 ice truck part number and that is wrong for the 24 lightning
Jesse coming in hot for the win! @FoxRidgeFarm, Jesse will definitely get you sorted. He is a solid dude!

I agreed, went have a Tesla.

Nut according to my VIN 1FTVW1BK4RWG22510

And this video https://fordauthority.com/2024/08/heres-how-to-tell-if-your-ford-ev-has-an-lfp-battery-video/

I have an LFP battery
Not sure what the video says, but the text on that page says no, no LFP in your Lightning.

"...Ford previously noted that it plans to offer LFP battery packs in its standard range EVs into the next decade, though the standard range Mach-E is currently the only one that is available with that type of unit.

The Ford F-150 Lightning has long been expected to add an LFP option at some point, though that hasn’t happened yet, while those units won’t be present in the E-Transit – at least for now. Regardless, Ford will begin producing its own LFP battery packs using technology licensed from CATL when the joint-venture BlueOval Battery Park Michigan opens up in 2026...."

Hi

Just to be clear you folks are correct my battery size or chemistry should have nothing to do with a trailer brake controller!

Here is my VIN 1FTVW1BK4RWG22510 and my sticker
