Where to plug in an electric brake controller on a 2007... - 3/16/2007 10:36:30 PM    bobinpa   Posts: 2 Joined: 2/16/2007 Status: offline Can someone please tell me where I can plug in my electric brake controller for my camper on my 2007 Silverado "New Body Style" truck. Seems like the trailer dealer and my truck dealer can't figure it out because of it being the "new body style". On my 2005 Silverado, there was no problem, just plug it in a harness that was hanging under the dash, alas, no harness hanging with the 2007. The truck dealer said something about unplugging something from somewhere then plugging something somewhere else. I'm really confused, I need this hooked up by Aprl so I can go camping. I would appreciate any help, please e-mail me at: rheck53@hotmail.com Thank you Bobinpa Post #: 1

Sometimes these wires are closer to the gas pedal but still taped up and easy to locate. (in reply to dpg7314) Post #: 8

I did find the wires under the dash. Where are the wires under the hood that need attaching? Thanks (in reply to Old Coot) Post #: 10
