• How To Install a Brake Controller in a 2011 Chevrolet Silverado
  In 2007, Chevrolet stopped offering plug-in connectors for brake controllers on their full size trucks with tow packages. Instead, you will have four or five blunt-cut wires bundled underneath your dash. The wire colors should be red with a black tracer, white, light blue with a white tracer, dark blue. You may also have an orange wire for a center high mount stop lamp function, but this would not be used for a brake controller installation. I would recommend the Prodigy P2 brake controller,...

• Is there a Tekonsha Vehicle Specific Pigtail for My 2013 GMC Sierra 1500?
  Hello Ric, I’m sorry, but I’m not showing that there is a vehicle-specific pigtail available for your 2013 Sierra 1500. You would need to splice in the brake controller. The Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller - Up to 3 Axles - Proportional # TK90160 would be the correct brake controller for your vehicle, as it comes with a universal wiring pigtail. If you need just the pigtail, you can order # 20127. Is there a connector under your dash for a vehicle-specific pigtail?

• 5th Wheel Hitch for Clean Bed Once Removed on a 2003 Chevy Silverado 1500 Short Bed
  If you are wanting to keep the bed of your 2003 Chevy Silverado 1500 clean then I highly recommend using the B&W Companion # BWRVK3400-5W because it mounts in the B&W Gooseneck Hitch # BWGNRK1059-5W. Instead of having bed rails in the bed of your truck you just have the gooseneck hitch ball receiver and safety chain loops as you can see in the attached photo. The Companion is made right here in the USA, has a 20,000 lb weight capacity (which is more than your pickup), 17" - 19" of height...

• Brake Controller and Install Harness Recommendation for a C5500 Motorhome
  The controller would need to be hardwired to your C5500 motorhome as it would not have a harness under the dash using our Brake Controller Installation Kit, part # ETBC7. Due to the fact that your motorhome is longer than the usual passenger vehicle, you'd need an extra length of wire, probably about 20 feet. The wire is sold by the foot as part # 10-2-1. I have linked you to instructions for the ETBC7 kit. I would recommend an easy to use, reliable proportional controller like the...

• What is Difference Between P2 and P3 Brake Controller
  Hey Kris, so the P2 # 90885 and P3 # 90195 at their core are the same exact brake controller but the P3 has a lot more "deluxe" features. For example, it has a display that uses full words instead of short two letter codes, has ability to change the color of the display, save trailer settings for multiple trailers, and has a diagnostic function that is way easier to understand.

• Brake Controller Installation on 1997 Chevy C/K Pickup

• Brake Controller Installation in 2006 GMC Sierra Pickup
  When installing a trailer brake controller in a 2006 GMC Sierra that has a factory 7-way you will both plug in the controller at the under-dash port using the brand-specific wiring adapter AND make some connections under the hood at the power distribution box.

• Best Brake Controller Recommendation for a 2006 Chevy Silverado
  We can set you up with a better brake controller than the factory brake controller that GM would have installed in your truck that wouldn't require any programming, but the factory one will require programming and will cost more and not perform as well.
