Expert Reply:
I'm not sure what brake controller you have but if the red wire is for the stop light circuit like it is for the Prodigy P2 # 90885 then you want to connect that to the COLD side of the stop light circuit on your 2013 International 4400. This wire is typically located by your brake pedal (on passenger vehicles and pickups) and only gets hot when the brake pedal is pressed. You may have to poke around with a circuit tester like part # PTW2992 to find a wire that carries this exact function, but I believe this is the circuit you are looking for.
