Expert Reply:
On your 2009 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the factory 7-way the only wire provided from the factory is the blue wire. This wire runs from the rear 7-way to under your dash. I recommend installing the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 and you will also need the Wiring # 5506. The installation is going to be similar to one we did on a 2004 in the video I linked near the bottom of this page.
