Expert Reply:
To add a brake controller to your 2023 Chevy Silverado 2500, I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Brake Controller item # RED63RR. This brake controller has a unique installation method where you can mount the control knob on your dash or console and hide the main unit out of sight. The Tow-Pro Elite is a proportional brake controller that automatically adjusts your trailer's braking based on the deceleration of your Silverado.
Since your Silverado has the tow package you will not need to worry about splicing wires because you will have a port beneath your dash that the Tekonsha Plug in Adapter item # 3064-P will connect to. This adapter will give you an easy plug and play installation.
I have linked a picture that will help you locate the wiring harness needed to plug in the adapter.
