I finally understood the wiring. I was able to connect the blue (break wire) to the trailer connector and run a black (12v) wire from the back of the coach to the front. I installed a 30 amp reset fuse before connecting to the positive port on the battery. After working into the evening with daylight dwindling, I connected the break controller to the wiring harness and (thank god) the break controller recognized the trailer. The wiring harness for the 2016 ACE was located on the left side of the steering column.
For having absolutely no experience with wiring, I am proud to report that after 7 hours and 2 runs to Lowes I finished my project.

No problem. Al I did was confirm what you had already determined.
As a note, I looked at the specs and features for your ACE and it was supposed to come with the 7 pin round connecter at the hitch. That is however, dependent on the build date and the specs do not specify the start date for the 7 pin and 8K hitch. Someone may have goofed on the build.
