Question Stealth Brake Controller Wiring

I have a 2016 Coachmen Encounter 37LS and Installing the Stealth Brake Controller #39530 in the Motorhome . I need some help knowing what wires connect to what Colors.

I found a factory bundle of wires under dash of motorhome that are Labeled.

BROWN---ILLUMINATION
DARK BLUE---TRAILER ELECTRIC BRAKE FEED
RED---TRAILER BRAKE CONTROL FEED
WHITE--- GROUND
LT GREEN-- STOP LAMP FEED TO BRAKE CONTROL

These are the colors on Brake Buddy Stealth Controller

Black--- Battery +
White --- Ground -
Red --Stoplight
Blue--Brake

What wires to i connect together.

Thanks for any and all help

Assuming the labels under the dash are correct:

[No connection] BROWN---ILLUMINATION
[Blue--Brake] DARK BLUE---TRAILER ELECTRIC BRAKE FEED
[Black--- Battery +] RED---TRAILER BRAKE CONTROL FEED
[White --- Ground] WHITE--- GROUND
[Red --Stoplight] LT GREEN-- STOP LAMP FEED TO BRAKE CONTROL

With a multimeter or test light before you connect the controller, you can check from WHITE--- GROUND to the various wires:

BROWN---ILLUMINATION
Should be on when the lights/parking lights are on.

DARK BLUE---TRAILER ELECTRIC BRAKE FEED
No voltage, should be a wire all the way back to the 7 pin plug at the hitch.

RED---TRAILER BRAKE CONTROL FEED
Always on (likely only when ignition is switched on)

LT GREEN-- STOP LAMP FEED TO BRAKE CONTROL
On when brake pedal is depressed
