For connecting the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR to your 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche you will need to determine if you have a factory harness already installed. The wiring for the controller located underneath the dash is difficult to find as it is tuck away up in the dash. I have linked a video below that shows an installation for a 2013 Avalanche as the wiring is in the same location.
Your wiring connections will be as follows.
White wire from controller to white wire on truck harness.
Red wire from controller to light blue wire with white tracer on truck harness.
Black wire from controller to red wire with black tracer on truck harness.
Blue wire from controller to blue wire on truck harness.
There is a red wire near the engine compartment fuse box that will also need connected. A Hex Flange Nut # 185917 is needed to attach this wire to the mounting stud under the lid of the fuse panel. This is also shown in the video that I have linked below.
