Brake Controller Adapter For 2003 Chevy Silverado 1500HD
Question:
I have a 2003 Chevy Silverado 1500HD 4x4. How do I know if a brake controller will plug directly into the fuse box underneath the dash or if I need to hard wire it? I assume this will determine which adapter I need to purchase.

Expert Reply:
It does depend on the year make and model of the vehicle if you have a brake controller harness to plug an adapter into under the dash. Normally vehicle's with towing packages from the factory have a brake controller plug in available.
The adapters are normally brand specific. If you have a Tekonsha brake controller like part # 39510 you can use part # 3015-P for the 2003 Chevy Silverado 1500HD 4x4. If you have a Curt controller, you can use part # C51352. If you have another brand please let me know and I can tell you which adapter you need.
