Expert Reply:
Are you getting any kind of code on the handheld system that comes with the (discontinued) Prodigy RF 90250? One thing that might be wrong is that vehicles with certain late model European tow packages may require the use of a tester like part # C73NR or another truck or SUV to pair the receiver and transmitter.
Try this out and let me know if it fixes your problem. If it doesn't, let me know what the year/make/model of your tow vehicle is as well as what wiring connector you have on your tow vehicle and trailer.
I have linked one of our installation videos for you to check out. I am not sure what you saw on YouTube so hopefully this may shed some more light on the installation.
