If that little harness only has 2 wires your looking at the wrong one for the brake controller. The one for the controller will have four wires and will be either white or blue.

Ok looked at my truck finally and here is how mine is wired. all four wires on vehicle are in a blue connector. i have a prodigy brake controller.

Blue wire from vehicle goes to blue wire on controller.
Blue wire with white stripe from vehicle goes to red wire on controller.
White wire with red stripe from vehicle goes to black wire on controller.
Green wire with black stripe from vehicle goes to white wire on controller.

Blue connector is up around the emergency brake area. Hope this helped. If not let me know.
