I can certainly point you in the right direction. Unfortunately I cannot tell you exactly what color wire to connect to, as these wire colors are not always universal. I recommend going in with a wire tester like the # PTW2993. You will need to probe each wire. You will be looking for the wire that is hot only when the brakes are applied. This will tell you where to connect the red wire coming off of your brake controller
