Expert Reply:
There is nothing specifically referred to as a quick connect, but in order to install a brake controller you will need a 4-way harness # 118392 which plugs in behind the trim panels in the cargo area on you 2011 Chevy Express Van. You will then need to install the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7 which will include a 7-way plug.
