Electric brake help

[pikefisherman]

2005 Silverado using Teconsa brake controller I have power to unit, black wire hot, when Irun ground to blue wire I get green light on controller, when I ground red no light on controller or test , when I ground white wire no power to test no green light.
I do have power to brake light on trailer.

Are you wired correctly? Typically.....

Black = +12v Power
White = Ground
Blue = Output from Controller to Trailer Brakes.
Red = Brake Pedal, Normally Floating/Open, 12v while Braking.

You will not see a green Light until all wires are correct.
Powering Black and Grounding the Blue is not a valid test.
Blue and Red are not Grounded.

Will the controller cause the breakaway switch to set the breaks?

No.. The breakaway switch only works if the plunger is pulled out.

The controller activates the brakes by supplying them w power through the blue wire.
