Expert Reply:
Some of the 1500 model Silverados still have a few connections under the hood that need to be connected to power the brake controller.
Check out the picture I attached that shows which wires need to go where under your hood. The ring terminal on the right side of the picture is the one you are looking for.
Also check the # 1 fuse to see if that is bad.
