I thought I would start this post since I have gotten quite a few messages about my trailier wiring setup, brake controller, 7 blade connector for my gooseneck hitch setup and for pintle hitch. It is a draw light controller. For trucks running a 24v system you do not have to buy the inverter they sell that is like almost $200. You can run the trailer lights on your 24volt system. The trailer brakes you cannot you have to isolate a 12volt only connection. I attached some pictures of how it is wired in on my M-61 as well as a wiring diagram that is pretty much idiot proof. My direct power is ran off of the switch to the controller and I only have 2 wires running from the rear of the truck to the front. The brake wire and the aux power.
