I would be happy to help you install your Tekonsha Prodigy P3 item # 90195 brake controller in your 2018 Chevy Express Van. I have linked a video below that shows the complete install of this brake controller but you will want to pay special attention to the 22 minute mark. This shows how to connect the brake light switch. You will need the Firestone Fuse Circuit Tap Kit item # F2526. This will go directly into the port where your brake light switch fuse is and then provide a wire that will connect to the red wire on your brake controller.
