Hopkins Brake Controller # HM47294 Compatibility with a 1999 Chevy Suburban

Question:

Two questions - I read that this controller is designed for up to 3 sets of brakes - I presume that means it will work with one set 2 wheels??? Also, does the part number HM47795 work for a 1999 Suburban or do you make a plug-in for the 1999 Chevy 1500 4-wheel drive Suburban or does it have to be hard-wired???

Yes, the Hopkins Agility Electric Brake Controller, part # HM47294, will work on a trailer with one axle that has one set of brakes. It would work on a trailer with one axle, two axles, or three axles. I attached installation instructions for you to check out.

The Hopkins Plug-in Simple Brake Wiring Adapter, part # HM47795, is designed to work on 2000-2006 Chevy Suburbans and would not work on your 1999 Chevy Suburban.

You will also want to install a brake controller installation kit, part # ETBC7, to give you the right trailer connector at the rear of your Suburban. I attached installation instructions for you to check out also.
