How To Turn Off The Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Brake Controller # 90195
Question:
I have the P3 brake unit. I dont pull very often, how do I turn it off other then unplugging.

Expert Reply:
The Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Brake Controller, # 90195, does not have an on and off switch. It will go into sleep mode after several minutes of no activity. The power draw when it is in the sleep mode is so negligible that it will not discharge the battery.
If you want the brake controller totally off, then you would have to unplug the connector from the back of the controller.

I have a 2021 Toyota Sequoia that I just purchased. It has a Tekonsha P3 installed that I do not need. Can I just unplug from the back and take it out? If so will my trailer light connector still function properly, thank you.
