What Does Internal Error Mean on Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller

I have a Trailer-Brake-Controller/Tekonsha prodigy P3 that is intermittently, showing a red screen with “internal error”. Is there a solution to this? I bought it from etrailer. Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:
The first step to troubleshooting the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195 would be to remove the unit from power and let it set a few minutes so everything can clear. If the issue still persist, the controller would need to be replaced as the internal error means something has gone wrong inside the unit and it cannot be repaired. That said, the unit has a lifetime warranty so if you are the original owner you should be able to get a new one no problem.
