I am going to replace the brake controller in my new to me 06 2500 chevy with a prodigy 2. not sure of the brand on old one but it has a harness to the factory wiring. do I need to get one with a new harness or will the wiring that comes with it work. my old one has no digital read out.

Just spend the $20 and get the Tekonsha wiring harness. No cutting, or splicing involved.

I have done both, my suggestion is save the hassle and get the factory wiring adapter. It will save you some time and is not very expensive

Order the Harness to go with the Controller to make it a "Plug and Play" install.Also, make sure the Fuse is installed in the Fuse Panel under the hood.....I believe it is a 40 Amp in the "Stud 1" location, this sends constant 12 volt feed to the camper while towing.

I bought a P3 last month and it came with a wire harness that plugged into the back of the P3, but just wires at the other end. ETRailer also had a harness with plugs at both ends, so I bought one of those just for convenience and used it. I hope that helps.
