Question:
I am looking to add a brake controller to my 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500. It has the towing package from the factory with the pucks in the bed and the wiring but I do not have a brake controller. I am not interested in a wireless one but would like a hard wired option with a plug in installation.

To add a brake controller to your 2022 Chevy Silverado 3500 you are going to want the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Brake Controller item # RED63RR.
This brake controller has a unique installation method where you can mount the control knob on your dash or console and hide the main unit out of sight. It is perfect for towing as you do not have to worry about banging your knee on a bulky brake controller. This is a proportional brake controller that automatically adjusts your trailer's braking based on the deceleration of your Silverado.
I have linked a picture below and circled the location where it is recommended to install the control knob. I have also linked a picture that will help you locate the wiring harness needed to plug in the adapter.
This brake controller and harness will install inside your Silverado without cutting or splicing wires using the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter item # 3064-P.
