Did you remove the panel under your driver's side dash? The plug for the adapter # 3026-P should be located there, taped to another harness to the left of the steering column (see attached photo).

This exists if your 2017 GMC Acadia Denali has a factory 7-Way connector at the rear. The plug-in adapter that I referenced will allow you to install a brake controller like the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 without hardwiring anything.

If you do not have a factory 7-Way then you need a 4-Way like the T-One # 118720 and the Universal Wiring Kit # ETBC7. This comes with all of the wiring needed for you to have a fully functional 7-Way and the correct wiring for installing a brake controller like the P3.

I have attached some videos and helpful articles that you can reference for the installation.
