IMHO, If you could hook to the outputs then drive and check the voltage when you brake and if you do not get any higher then your module could be bad. and you could contact the maker of the module but I did find this.

WARNING!! New 2013 Ram Truck - Brake Controller, Aftermarket

From Cequent Performance Products

TECHNICAL BULLETIN: TB13-01

Issue Date: 02/01/13

Installing Electric Brake Controls – 2013 Ram Trucks

Vehicles - 2013 Ram Truck - All

Product Family - Brake Controls -All

The electrical system on the 2013 Ram trucks has changed. Though the brake control connector is the same as the 2010-2012, the wire functions have changed. The terminal that used to be the stop light signal, now has battery voltage, whenever the ignition is in the run position. According to Dodge, it is not possible to install an aftermarket electric trailer brake control into these trucks. Dodge says, that “the 2013 Ram has “Powernet” and utilizes multiplex wiring that is different from any previous design’s, therefore, your aftermarket trailer brake control is not compatible”

At this time, the only aftermarket brake control that can be used on a 2013 Ram truck, is the Tekonsha 90250 Prodigy RF. As soon as more information is available, a revision to this technical bulletin will sent out.

WARNING!!! - Any attempt to install an aftermarket brake control into the vehicle, may cause severe damage to the vehicle’s electrical system or electrical component!

Hope this might help a little.
