Brake controller

[DaveK98]

I haven't used my prodigy yet but it has tow little dots that seem to be on all the time, it this the case?



Guess I need to read my instructions I'm not what the 2 buttons do and I'm pulling my 5ver on thursday for the 1st time :--)

Those two lights stay on for ~20 min. after you use the pedal with out the trailer hooked up. when conected the two lights will have look like this . C. I'm thinking it means conected. The spiny wheel on the left is the adjustment that will need to be set when the trailer is hooked up. The button is the boost, I use B2. I don't fool with it much cause the wife hates when I play with stuff going down the road. :-laf The instructions for setup in that came with it are real important. If setup wrong it won't work much or will jerk when you stop.

Read the instructions last night and they seem pretty simple, I'll bring them along... .

I just installed a Jordan Ultima and love it! Set it once and forget it. And talk about smooth, predictable and on-demand braking.



Not knocking the prodigy - that was my second choice. But I like the true proportional control minus the inertia angle.

Well, for me--- needed one ASAP. BrakeSmart and Jordon were not available locally and the Tekonsha products were. The Prodigy was not approved for use with my electric over hydraulic set up but the new offering, Primus, was. Purchased and installed --- and for 9 bucks got a model specific jumper cable to connect it. This thing is excellent. My previous controller was a time based POS and there is a huge difference in braking experience. .
