Will 2016 Chevy Silverado Integrated Brake Controller work w Electric Over Hydraulic Brakes
Question:
I have a Tekonsha Prodigy P3 controller for my 2003 Chev Silverado which I am very happy with. I recently purchased a 2016 Chev 3500 HD to tow a Heartland RV 5th wheel with a GW of 18,000#. QUESTION: Will the factory ITBC on the new truck be compatable with the ELECT/HYD DISC BRAKES on the 5th wheel RV, or will I need an adapter for them to function properly? Thanks,

Helpful Expert Reply:
The 2015 and newer integrated brake controllers of the Chevy trucks are compatible with electric over hydraulic brake actuators. Yours should work just fine with your fifth wheel trailer brakes.
