Trailer brake controller help
I will be towing a 4500-5000# trailer about 60 miles, now i plan on doing much heavier towing later, and i was wondering how i could tell if my truck is already wired, and how difficult it is to wire a trailer brake controller.

Look in your vehicle owner's manual. There will be a section on towing and connecting a brake controller. My '05 was a direct plug in using a jumper harness that came with the Prodogy controller.
