The Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller # 90885 will have a single blue light that stays on even when the trailer is not connected. You will have two blue dots if the boost is on, but only one if the boost is no on. I've attached a video that walks you all the display features and functions. After about 15 minutes the controller will go into sleep mode and no lights will be seen even though power is still going to the unit to keep your settings.

That number is probably 4 mm which that amount is acceptable. Normally trailer brake thicknesses are done by inch though. 3/16 of an inch is what they are new and then they should get replaced at 1/16 of an inch.
