I have the factory tow package with the 7pin harness at the back. I need to install a brake controller and from what I've read online, there should be a blue wire taped up under the dash coming from the 7pin plug at the back. Can't find it. Anyone know where it is exactly? I did find a red wire(cut off, no connector on it) behind the drivers side kick panel. Anyone know what that is for? There's not power to it. Thanks |

It might not be there. My 07 didn't have it. Just run your own (technically 2, as the 7-pin has brake control and B+.) |

Thanks, I guess I'll do that. |

On my KJ it was a blue and white wire looped up and tucked behind the panel left of the driver's foot. |

https://www.etrailer.com/Accessories-an ... ETBC7.html pretty sure that was the kit I bought back in the day, or at least one like it. has all the bits needed to adapt the 4-wire to 7-wire. I definitely remember the grey cable though. |

Funny thing is, at the 7pin connector, the brake wire is pink/white. Didn't believe it at first so I went up further into the wire loom thinking the wire color must have faded. Yup, it's pink with a white tracer. This is factory. I wouldn't be surprised if the loose red wire under the dash is my brake wire. Thanks Jeep, can't follow a simple color code. |

Just found another thread stating that the brake wire on some 07 Kjs is red and not blue. So that answers my question. Hope this helps someone else. |
