Parts Needed to Install Brake Controller in 2018 Chevy Express 2500
Question:
I have a 2018 chevy express van 2500 Can you help me with the part numbers for this application: I have the hitch installed on the van, no wiring. My trailer has a 7 way plug. I think I need the wiring to get a 4 way plug down to the hitch. I think I need the P3 brake controller. I'll need the 7 way socket that will get attached to the hitch. I'll need the wiring to accomplish the 4 way plug and P3 brake controller. I've watched your videos, but I get confused when going through the website with the various kits. Can you simplify?

Expert Reply:
For your 2018 Chevy Express 2500 the Prodigy P3 brake controller # 90195 is a really great choice. To install it in your van that does not have any trailer wiring currently does require you to start with a 4-way # 118392 which installs easily. I attached an install video for more info on it for you to check out as well on an Express van just like yours.
Then next you will need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way which we have the part # ETBC7 which comes with all the needed wiring to install the brake controller as well.
