Electric Brake Control Wiring
Provisions

These wiring provisions are
included with the vehicle as part of
the trailer wiring package. These
provisions are for an electric brake
controller. The instrument panel
contains blunt cut wires behind the
steering column for the trailer brake
controller. The harness contains the
following wires:

.

Dark Blue: Brake Signal to
Trailer Connector

.

Red/Black: Battery

.

Light Blue/White: Brake Switch

.

White: Ground

The harness should be installed by
your dealer or a qualified service
center.

If the vehicle is equipped with an
Integrated Trailer Brake Control
(ITBC) System, the blunt cuts exist,
but are not connected further in the
harness. If an aftermarket trailer
brake controller is installed, the

ITBC must be disconnected. Do not
power both ITBC and aftermarket
controllers to control the trailer
brakes at the same time.

Tow/Haul Mode

Pressing this button at the end of
the shift lever turns on and off the
Tow/Haul Mode.

This indicator light on the instrument
panel cluster comes on when the
Tow/Haul Mode is on.

Tow/Haul is a feature that assists
when pulling a heavy trailer or a
large or heavy load. See Tow/Haul
Mode on page 9‑44
for more
information.
