Expert Reply:

If you bypass the factory brake controller in your 2008 GMC Sierra properly you would not have any error codes appear on the dash display. You also would not have to have the computer of the truck reprogrammed in any way.

To see exactly how to do this check out the help article I linked on this page. It will walk you through the entire process.

For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes.
