How to Wire the Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller to a 2024 Chevy Tahoe
Updated 02/17/2026 | Published 06/10/2024
Question:
I have a Tekonsha Primus brake controller I’m trying to hookup to my 2024 Chevy Tahoe but the wires are labeled differently. The 4 wires on my Tahoe are labeled: Blue: “To trailer” Red/Black: “Batt Feed” Lt Blue/White: “Brake Apply Feed” White: “ Ground” Cables on my Tekonsha Primus are labeled: Black: “Power” Red: “Stop” Blue: “ Brake” White: “Ground” Any help on which wires should be connected to each other is much appreciated. Thanks Kris Jenson

Hey Chris! To connect the Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller item # TK90160 to your 2024 Chevy Tahoe you'll want to do the following:
Blue: “To trailer” = Blue: “ Brake”
Red/Black: “Batt Feed” = Black: “Power”
Lt Blue/White: “Brake Apply Feed” = Red: “Stop”
White: “ Ground” = White: “Ground”
