Finally getting a camper!
Hello all. Been lurking here for a few years, posting sporadically. Hopefully by this time next week, we will be the proud owners of a new 2014 Rockwood HW296! I have a 2007 Silverado 1/2 ton truck...

Well, went to pick up the Pup, and after a 5 hour drive, they couldn't get the brake controller to work on my truck. Needless to say, I didn't come home with my Pup. For some reason they couldn't get the brake controller to work, I have a 2007 Chevy Silverado 1/2 ton TV. I would have thought that it would have been a breeze to do on the Chevy, but they were having problems for some reason. I'm wondering if it is just a faulty brake controller. They told me there must be a problem with the factory wiring harness, and to take it to a Chevy dealer to get it looked at.
They are going to deliver the camper to me free of charge. Has anybody else ever had trouble with a brake controller on a Chevy? I hate to take it to the dealer, because I'm sure it won't be cheap. I am very mechanically inclined, and will probably try to do it myself. They left the controller installed in the truck. Should I try to get it going, or just buy a new one and do it myself? Any feedback would be welcome. Otherwise it was a mostly pleasant experience, at Fun Town RV of Cleburne Texas. Also it was close to closing time when we arrived, but they still did a brisk walkthrough (which was fine with me because I pretty much know how everything works), and stayed late trying to get the problem with the brake controller resolved.
