Sounds like your 2019 Jeep Cherokee does not have the tow package wiring for a brake controller to install as not all of the Cherokees came equipped with it. If it was present you would have seen the port under the dash where you checked.

You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # C56406 which is a custom fit for your Cherokee.

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.
