There are a couple possible things for what you may be seeing on your Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller # 90195. I could not locate anything about a 5.H or S.H code. It is also worth noting that the P3 has warnings and cautions built in, but that they actual display the work warning or caution followed by the issue. This means you are not getting an error code.

The P3 will display and H on the screen if you are in the Hydraulic brake type setting. But what I think is more likely is that the screen is showing 5.4. That 5.4 denotes a hypothetical power output when the manual control knob is activated.

If you need further help with this, please provide a picture of the code on the screen.
