Question:
When the dual cable is routed in front of the vehicule, we have to connect the black one to the positive battery terminal by using a breaker and what we have to do with the white one?

Expert Reply:
The black wire of the # ETBC7 does get run to the positive post of the battery through the circuit breaker and the white wire runs to the negative side of the battery. This is what supplies power and ground to the brake controller. I attached a diagram that shows how it all wires up as well as an install video.
