There is no brake controller plug-in adapter present on your 2013 Chevrolet Suburban, but there will be 4 or possibly 5 blunt cut wires under the left side of the dash to the left of the steering column. These wires will be identified with a white label and by the color of the wires.
Here is how you will need to connect the harness that came with the Prodigy brake controller, either part # 90885 or part # 90195. The Red/Black wire is the battery power and connects to the Black wire from the brake controller harness. The White connects to the White and is the ground wire. The Light Blue/White wire connects to the Red wire and is the brake light signal. The Dark Blue wire connects to the Blue wire on the harness and is the brake output wire to the trailer. If there is an Orange wire, it can be capped as it is not used. I have attached a helpful article that explains how to attach the brake controller on your Suburban.
