I have an 02 Chevy 2500 Crew Cab and want to place a 7 lead outlet in the bed of the truck. All the wiring is already factory run to a set of wires that sits between the bed and the cab. Only problem is there is no juice to any of the wires. Is there a connection I need to make to charge up the factory harness?

My Ford came with a prep kit.(tow package) It had the pigtail for the brake controller, relays and a fuse. Directions that came in the kit shows where they are installed. If you don't have this, maybe your owners manual packet has something about the hook-ups.
