If you are attempting to install a brake controller on a 1999 Chevy and your vehicle is equipped with the factory installed 7-Way trailer connector, the only part needed to install the brake controller is the unit itself. The manufacturer provides a universal brake control adapter that connects to the brake controller and plugs into the vehicle's electrical junction box. This junction box is located on the driver's side below the dash, left of the brake pedal.

Sounds like you need the harness. For that you would want part # 3025-P. I attached an install video and a help article for you to check out as well. If you have a Tekonsha brake controller this harness will plug right in. Otherwise you will need to cut off the connector and hardwire it to your controller.
