To install the Tekonsha brake controller part # TK90160 in your 2015 Jeep Wrangler you will need to hardwire the install. Check out the FAQ article I attached on how to install a brake controller from scratch.

Basically you will need to run the 4 wires of the controller like the chart I attached and for the blue wire you will just run it to the brake output circuit of your 7-way. Which if you determine that the blue wire you found is that circuit you can attach directly to it.

For a circuit breaker you would want part # 9506P on the power wire of the controller and then for wire you will need part # 10-1-1 which is 10 gauge wire sold by the foot.
