What is the best brake controller for a 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500?

Helpful Expert Reply:
The best brake controller for your 2023 Chevy Silverado 1500 is the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Brake Controller item # RED63RR. I really like this brake controller because it has a unique installation method where you can mount the control knob on your dash or console and hide the main unit out of sight. This is a proportional brake controller that automatically adjusts your trailer's braking based on the deceleration of your Silverado.
Since your Silverado has the tow package you will not need to worry about splicing wires because you have a port beneath your dash that the Tekonsha Plug in Adapter item # 3064-P will connect to. This adapter will give you an easy plug and play installation.
I have included a picture of where you can find the brake controller adapter and linked an installation video that will be helpful as well.
