Default 04 silverado, no trailer brake

There is no wires to check (on my side). The problem is right at the eletrical box its self. There is no signal coming out of the panal when the brake pedal is pushed. I even tested another truck to make sure that i was tested the right place.

Default 04 sivlerado elec brake

When i tested it on the other truck, it had 12volt coming from the pin(when you pushed the brake pedal down) that would contact the plug in the area that was wired to go to the brake pedal wire on the back of the electric brake controler.

On my 2500Hd there is a fuse block under the hood on the driver side with the trailer brake fuse in it. Mine didnt have a fuse in it .I had to install it myself.
