Tenkonsha brake control not controlling

On my 2001 F-350, I have a Tekonsha Envoy brake controller that’s not activating the trailer brakes with my brake pedal. The controller lights up, signifying it knows the trailer is there. Also the over ride switch will lock the brakes up, but it’s not working through the brake pedal. Can anyone help point me in the right trouble shooting direction? Thanks

Bigcountry1009 here is a link to an etrailer quick troubleshooting guide. My guess is that the problem is in the plug connection.

Here is a link to the 7 pin plug wiring guide.
