Expert Reply:
The Reese Brakeman you have is the same thing as the Draw Tite Brake Controller part # 5504, and all that is required to install the # 5504 in your vehicle is the brake controller install harness part # 3016.
Which I attached installation instructions and an install video for the harness in a link to the right for you to check out. This adapter plugs into the 4-pin connector in your vehicle's junction box. The box is located underneath the dash, to the left of the steering column, just above the carpeting.
