Helpful Expert Reply:
There isn't a diagram available specific to the Tekonsha PowerTrac Brake Controller # 39523 but it uses standard brake controller wiring. The black wire is for 12V power to the controller, the red wire is for brake input from the vehicle and it gets connected to the cold side of the brake light switch (the wire on your vehicle that ONLY gets power when the brake pedal is depressed), the blue wire is for brake output to the 7-Way connector, and the white wire is for ground.
I have attached the installation instructions for this particular controller along with a general brake controller wiring diagram that you might find helpful.
