Yes, the Tekonsha brake controller 902502 is compatible with the 2020 Ford Explorer ST as long as the vehicle is equipped with the factory tow package and factory 7-way connector.
The Explorer ST with the factory tow package should include an OEM brake controller plug under the dash, allowing Tekonsha controllers to install using a plug-and-play harness without cutting or splicing wires.
The compatible setup typically uses:
- Tekonsha controller
- Ford-specific plug-in adapter harness part 303500
A proportional controller like this is appropriate for trailers with electric brakes on 1–4 axles.
