Installing a Brake Controller on my 2005 E-350 Chassis Motorhome

Question:

I have a Tekonsha voyager brake controller installed. It is plugged in via the connector located at the left foot panel driver side. However, at the rear the 7 pole flat receptacle only has four wires. White, yellow, green and brown. All functions work. I have tested the controller, and verified power supply at controller connection. Led will go green then red when controller voltage increases. Is there a factory connection somewhere to get the brake supply power to 7 pole receptacle? Or should I just cut red and blue wires from controller and hard wire? Red to brake light switch and blue to 7pole receptacle?

In your situation with the Brake signal having no way to get to the 7-Way plug on the back of your coach you will want to run your own wire. I recommend using the 12 Gauge Black Primary Wire part # 12-1-1 to connect from the blue wire off the controller to the blue wire coming off the back of your 7-way connector using DW05745-5 to make the connection at each end. Because your controller is responding properly otherwise you should not have to do anything with the red stoplight switch wire.
