What Size Wire Connectors For Installing Brake Controller on 2018 GMC Canyon/Chevy Colorado
Question:
What size of butt splicer should I use with this to connect to 2018 Canyon with factory brakes? I just purchased a c51170 and a c51515 from you.

In order to install the Curt # C51170 Spectrum brake ocntroller on your 2018 Canyon, you'll need 2 of the 14-16 gauge butt connectors like what's provided with part # DW05744-5, and two 10-12 gauge connectors like what comes with the # DW05745-5.
I've linked to a video showing a brake controller being installed on 2008 Chevy Colorado.
