Hi Adam,
Since you used the Curt Custom Wiring Adapter for Trailer Brake Controllers # C51525 to install the Curt Spectrum Trailer Brake Controller # C51170 you likely have either a blown trailer brake fuse or they just never installed one to begin with. The trailer brake fuse should be number 84 in the engine compartment fuse block. I recommend checking it and seeing if you're getting power or if you just need to add in a fuse to get power to the brake controller.
