Brake Controller Port Location for a 2000 GMC Sierra Pickup
Updated 11/30/2009 | Published 11/28/2009 >
Question:
I have looked all over for the factory port in my P/U and cannot find it. I have the work truck. I have found the orange/blue ends taped under the brake booster and the blunt taped under the spare tire. This makes me sure there must be a port somewhere but I cant find it.

Expert Reply:
If your 2000 GMC Sierra is a Classic model, then it will not have a brake controller port. You will need to hardwire in the brake controller and run the wires back to the 7-Way. You would need a part # ETBC7 and some sort of a 4-Way connector. Then you would wire the brake controller to the 7-Way.
If your truck is not a Classic model the port should be located underneath a black cover behind and to the left of the brake pedal. I have included a link to a video of a brake controller being installed on a 2001 GMC Yukon that should help you find where to look.
