Expert Reply:
If you are getting a blank screen on your Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Brake Controller # 90195 you might just need to reset the unit (as simple as that might sound). Try unplugging the controller, waiting for about 15 minutes, and then plugging it back in. This should reset the system and resolve the blank screen you are getting.
Please just let me know if this does not work and I will be happy to look into this further.

I see the same issue on mine I just re-installed the unit for the summer and have a plug and play connector. First display was fine now it dont display any information unless I flex the connection on the back of the unit. If i move the connection on the back of the unit it will display on and off. It seams like a bad connection at the back of the unit but can't seam to resolve it. I bought the unit with the Factory connection cable.
