I took a look at the video you are referencing and the wires of your Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 4 Axles - Proportional, part # 90195, are connected correctly. If you still are not getting power, I would check the fuse box to see if you have the fuses for your brake controller installed. They are usually equipped, but if they are not your brake controller will not get any power. You need a 30-amp and 40-amp fuses in the power-distribution box. One for the brake controller and the other to activate the 12-volt power lead.
I have included a video link below. You can see the fuses you need starting at the 5:02 minute mark in the video. Please let me know if this does not solve your problem.
