The brake controller and wiring options for a 2001 GMC Savana can be tricky. If you have a bundle of wires in the jack storage compartment, I would ask that you test them for function using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 and label them.
If you find that you have 7 wires (left turn/brake, right turn/brake, running lights, 12-volt power, reverse lights, brake controller output, and ground) then you can use the Pollak 7- and 4-Pole Trailer Connector Socket, # HM40975 and Pigtail Wiring Harness,... view full answer...

The brakes on your trailer are electric brakes. That oval piece towards the bottom is the brake magnet and is what ultimately controls the brake action. It's actually more cost-effective to replace the entire brake assemblies so I recommend using the 10" Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-35-SA which updates everything with your brakes. Since your wiring connections are outside you'll want to use protective butt connectors # DW05745-10 which... view full answer...
I can definitely help you find the right parts to add a 7-way to your 2006 GMC Savana 2500. Since it sounds like you don't have any wiring at all you will need to start by adding a 4-way.
For that you need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # 55540. This will plug into the connection points in your rear cargo area, providing you with a 4-way to power the trailer's signal lights.
From there all you need is the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7.... view full answer...
The Draw-Tite trailer hitch receivers, like # 75189, do include all of the hardware needed for installation.

The 2014 GMC Savana does not have a brake controller installation port under the dash, but certainly one of the other connectors under the dash could easily resemble one. A brake controller wiring adapter will have 4 prongs that carry 12V power for the controller, the ground connection, a brake light switch input signal and a 4th that carries the controller output to the trailer connector on a blue wire. Brake controller installation will be hard-wired in your van.

The Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller # TK90160 is a great proportional brake controller that will work well in your 2000 GMC Savana Van. It has an easy to read LED display and 3 boost levels that let you adjust initial braking power and aggressiveness. Since you already have a 4-way flat trailer connector, you are correct in that the only additional product you will need is the Universal Wiring Kit # ETBC7. This will include everything else necessary to install the brake controller... view full answer...
If your 2014 GMC Savana Van has a factory-installed 7-way trailer connector at the back bumper then the van will have the blue output brake wire already ran from the back to the front. It is located under the dash near the emergency brake pedal. This connects to the blue output wire from the controller. If instead the van has a round plug with a cap inside the driver's side frame rail, instead of a bundle of wires in the jack storage compartment, use part # 30955.
If the van does NOT have... view full answer...
Since you don't already have the factory wiring for a towing package on your 2004 GMC Savana Cutaway 3500, you'll first need to add a 4 way connector; to do this I recommend using the Tekonsha 4-pole Hardwire Kit with Circuit Tester # 18252 which will need to be hardwired into your vehicle electrical system.
From there, to add the appropriate wiring for a brake controller, you need to add the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7 , which will put a 7 way connector... view full answer...

If you had to install a 4-way trailer wiring harness on your 2015 GMC Savana for trailer wiring you would not have the brake controller wiring port under the dash and would need to hardwire the controller in.
For converting the 4-way to a 7-way and installing the brake controller we have the part # ETBC7 which comes with everything needed to install the controller.
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller... view full answer...
