Where Does a Brake Controller Wire Into on a 2013 Chevy Silverado
Question:
Hello, I have a 2013 Chevy Silverado. I have watched your installation video but am not sure which wiring harness you used? Also I noticed you did not put an in line fuse so not sure if that is needed here or not? Please let me know. Thanks

The 2013 Chevy Silverado does not have a place to plug in a brake controller but what it does have is a tow package wire bundle tucked up under the dash, to the left of the steering column, held together with a white tag. The brake controller wires directly to these wires.
There is already a fuse location for the brake controller so an in line fuse is not needed. I have included a link to a help article that explains the installation. There may be some additional connections that you will need to make under the hood to make everything fully functional.
