Instruction Manual for Tekonsha Podigy P2 # 90885 Brake Controller

Question

Question:

We just recently purchased a 2003 Lexus GX 470 which came with your 90085 brake controller proportional. We have no idea on how to use this device when towing a trailer. Do you have a manual available on how to use it?

We sure do! I've linked you to a copy of the installation instructions which you can print out if you wish.

I've also linked you to our Brake Controller FAQ article, which includes much more information about brake controllers and how they operate.

I've linked the manual for the Prodigy P2 # 90885. It is the pdf so you should be able to open it without issue. If you still have issues then you may need to download a different pdf viewer. I've also attached the product page and we have so many videos that will walk you through all the features and installation.
