Wiring to Install an Electric Brake Controller in a 2014 Chevrolet Tahoe
Question:
Hello, We recently purchased a 2014 Chevy Tahoe with the factory 7-way plug installed. I would like to add the Tekonsha P3 - do you have a direct plug-in adapter that would fit the P3 and our vehicle? Also, our Tahoe only as the stock in-radiator transmission cooler. Do you have any recommendations for a specific cooler? Ive also wondered about an engine oil cooler - with 500 - 600 mi max per year towing a 3500lb travel trailer, would this be a benefit? Thanks!

The wires to install an electric brake controller into your 2014 Chevrolet Tahoe are already under the dash but unfortunately there is no plug-in adapter. You'll need to hardwire the Prodigy P3 # 90195 once you find the wiring. I've linked an article that shows the wiring you'll need to find.
Transmission and oil coolers are never a bad idea when towing. Both can prolong the life of your Tahoe. Since you're considering both I suggest getting a combination cooler like the Derale # D15902. It has both coolers combined into one device.
