Equinox models equipped with the tow package will have blunt-ended tow package wiring located behind the side panel of the center console on the driver's side next to the gas pedal instead of a connector. You'll need the # C51515 universal harness that will plug into the Curt # C27JR Echo brake controller and wire directly to the tow package wiring.

The tow package wiring is a bundle of 4 blunt ended wires that are blue, black, white/blue striped and red/green stripe.

The pigtail wires to the tow package wiring as follows:

• Red/Green tow package wire to Black pigtail wire
• Blue tow package wire to Blue pigtail wire
• Black tow package wire to white pigtail wire
• White/Blue Striped tow package wire to red pigtail wire

I've linked to a video that runs through the operation of the Curt Echo Under the Dash brake controller.
