Expert Reply:
We offer brake controllers that have the power capability to activate 3 brake axles but the Curt Echo # C51180 does not have the ability to be used on trailers that have more than two brake axles. This controller doesn't have a lot of drawbacks but this might be the only one.
For a brake controller that is compatible with 3 brake axles I would recommend the Prodigy P3 Brake Controller part # 90195. This is one our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes. This will be the last brake controller you buy as it is incredibly reliable, works, well and is easy to use. It can easily be transferred to future vehicles as well.
All you need to install this in your 2019 Sierra is the install harness part # 3016.
