Trailer brakes and controller on 1999 GMC Suburban

Filed under: Automotive — Landis V @ 5:18 pm

Need to get my Suburban set up with a 7-conductor trailer connector and possibly a brake booster (possibly, because it is indicated that the ‘burb already has this controller).  Noting a couple of links.

Note:  Suburban does not include the booster from the factory, just the wiring.  The wiring terminates up behind the brake controller just in front of the firewall.  I ended up drilling a small hole in the firewall and mounted a cheapo Wal Mart controller there.
