Brake control plug for 2000 x w/tow pkg.







4 wire connector

According to my 2000 wiring diagrams the trailer/camper adapter connector C408 located on the left side just forward of the rear bumper is only a 4 terminal connector. It only has wires for trailer left turn/stop lamp, right turn/stop lamp, tail lamps and ground. Since it is not wired for trailer brakes I doubt there are provisions for a brake controller. I didn't see any connections for a controller in the wiring diagrams.

I'll run a #10 wire w/circuit breaker from the batt. for brakes.
