The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package - 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector, # C56332, will only run the lighting functions from your vehicle to your trailer. If you are needing to connect a brake controller to your trailer, then more wiring will be needed to make the connection.
Using the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller - 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat - 10 Gauge Wires, # ETBC7, will allow you to wire a 7-way RV trailer connector to your vehicle and the needed wiring and components to install a brake controller. This set up will allow you to plug the 4-way connection from # C56332 to the 7-way and wire the brake controller to the connector.
If you are needing a brake controller, I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Electric Brake Controller, # 90885. This P2 in one of our most popular controller due to its easy installation and ease of use.
I have linked videos and articles on installing a brake controller and trailer wiring for you to review.
