Question:
Hello, I am installing the Redarc brake controller, but I do not know what wire is the brake light for the red wire connection. I have a 2021 Kia Sedona Ex. How do I find this out? A NCV tester has not seemed to work. How do I find this information? Thank you,

Hey Grant, did you test all of the tires that run to your stoplight circuit with your tester? If not, that is the place to check. Since you used a non contact tester and some say those aren't always reliable I would try again with a probing tester like our part # PTW2993. You will be looking for a circuit that only has voltage when the brakes are applied.
Another option is a universal stoplight switch like the part # RM-751000 which you'd install at the brake pedal and it will give you the stoplight circuit you need for the red wire of your controller.
