Here is what I went through on my Suburban and just maybe, your
Traverse uses the same brake pedal switch and fuse block...or similar
enough for you to figure it out from my pic's
1996 Suburban tow harness
This is the brake pedal switch connector and is the white wire on
my 1996 Sub that I tapped into

You shouldn't have to tap into the battery terminals. Best to use the
fuse block, as it is fused. You can use an un-used fuse too boot if
you wish to isolate this new circuit

I traded my 2008 Honda CR-V for a used Traverse. It's not equipped with the factory towing package, but shouldn't have a problem towing a 2000 pound popup if the CR-V had no problem. I saved the brake controller from the CR-V, but I'm debating whether to put it into the Traverse. Only thing being the battery is under the rear floor and it's not as easy running wires. Also haven't located a suitable brake signal; the CR-V provided that in the harness for the taillight converter. On the one hand, I towed the popup with the CR-V before I put brakes on it, though it didn't let you forget that there was an extra 2000 pounds behind it. On the other hand, it wouldn't hurt to have the brakes, they could help.
Anybody put a brake controller in a Chevrolet Traverse/Saturn Outlook/GMC Acadia/Buick Enclave without the towing package?
