On the brake switch on the 2005 Chevy Express Van chassis look for a white wire. Use a circuit tester such as # PTW2993 to test that wire and if it only has power when the brake pedal is pressed then it is the correct wire and will attach to the brake controller red wire. I have linked a video that should also help.
