Can Curt Spectrum Brake Controller Install in 2011 GMC Yukon
Question:
I want to purchase the Curt Spectrum Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 4 Axles - Proportional - Dash Mount Item # C51170 I have a 2011 Yukon Denali - Is there a direct plug in wiring harness? Or would I have to splice onto the appropriate wires behind the dash? Thanks,

Expert Reply:
The Curt Spectrum part # C51170 can install easily in your 2011 GMC Yukon with the factory wiring it has under the dash with the universal wiring harness part # C51515 but like you mentioned it has to wire directly to the brake controller wiring under the dash as there isn't a connector present for a plug-in type install.
To see how a similar brake controller installs in a Yukon like yours check out the install video link I attached to this page.
