I’m new to the RV world and so far having a Great time with this adventure, Soooooo Here’s today’s question, I have a 98 DSDP and I’m planning to tow a 28’ Pace trailer behind it. I need to hook up a brake controller. Anybody have the wiring prints for this application? Or has someone done this before and has the trick set up?
Also I have seen on the coach, a brake light fuse in the front and a brake light fuse in the rear. Is this normal? Thanks for the Help

A 98 coach may not have had the extra braking wiring. The wires if you have them would be coiled up to left of steering wheel under dash. Will have to use flashlight to find.
An easier way maybe open your trailer plug and see if ever wired or you may find the wiring coiled up near the jack.
Heres a link for trailer wiring and Newmar has always wired standard, unless previous owner did his own wiring job.
