P2 Brake Controller Electric Over Hydraulic Mode Not Working with Electric over Hydraulic Brakes
Question:
Do you have to have a constant power source for electric over hydraulic brakes. I installed prodigy p2 adjusted per the instructions and I still dont have trailer brakes. The controller shows that it is connected upper case C. Thanks for any help

For electric over hydraulic braking systems you will need a controller that is compatible with that type of system. The P2 # 90885 is compatible with electric over hydraulic brakes when it is put in that mode. It sounds like you are in the mode since you have the capital C and not the lower case c. But to make sure here are the steps to get to EOH mode.
To enter EOH mode first enter Reverse Mode by pressing the Boost Button for 5 seconds while the brake pedal is pressed until [ .r ] is displayed. While continuing to have the brake pedal pressed,
momentarily release the Boost Button for less than one second and then press and continue to hold the boost button down for an additional 5 seconds.
The display will now change from the boost value to a flashing [ E. ] or [ E.H ]. Depress and release
Boost repeatedly to select the desired mode. Engage the Manual Knob to accept the mode, or wait 10 seconds for the function to automatically time out and accept the mode. The mode selected will be stored in memory even when disconnected. When in Electric over Hydraulic mode, the display
will change to [ .C. ] and [ n.C. ]. The upper-case “C” indicated E/H rather than the lower case “c” for
Electric mode.
It is also possible that the EOH system that you have on the trailer is not compatible for some reason. If you can tell me the system you have I can determine if there is a known problem with that particular system.
