Parts Needed to Install Brake Controller in a 2016 Chevy Express Van without Trailer Wiring

Question:

Need to hook up a brake controller on this van. I did find the wiring taped up under the floor mat. It does not have the trailer wiring in the back however. Can the wires up front be used to hook up the brake controller? Where does the blue wire go if there is no trailer wiring in the back?

You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 118392.

From there you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well.

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.
