I have some great brake controller options for a 2019 Chevrolet Colorado. There are two main types, wireless and wired. The wireless brake controller will be the easiest to install. For this, I recommend the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180. The other option is a wire controller which will require some minor splicing into the pre-run wires under the dash. For this, I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195. I recommend the P3 for frequent towing or the Echo for occasional towing.
I have attached install options on both controllers below.
