"Standard" Wire colors to the controller (Tekonsha and others):
- Black, Battery Positive to controller
- White, Negative Ground for Controller
- Blue, Brake feed from controller to Trailer plug at back of truck
- Red, tap into truck Brake light switch signal to tell controller to apply brakes
Remember, the above colors are just a GUIDE. your colors may be different, read the instructions!
We tapped into the white wire with the tan tracer for the brake light signal (red wire is from the controller)
We ran a power feed wire from the 10mm main power stud nut on the fuse panel under the hood, to a 15 amp circuit breaker we mounted in the fuse panel, then out to the firewall. We drilled a small hole in the rubber grommet (and sealed with silicone when done) to pass the power wire into the dash area to power the controller.
