Helpful Expert Reply:
If the controller isn't getting power once you've plugged it in using the factory or the # 3016 aftermarket pigtail, there is a fuse that will need to be installed in the fuse box located under the hood. A micro J-Case fuse needs to be installed in position # 1, which will power up the brake controller. Your owner's manual or the diagram on the fuse box lid will show you where fuse location # 1 is located.
