Troubleshooting Tekonsha P3 Brake Controller that Only Shows Red Display
Updated 07/22/2024 | Published 06/22/2019 >
Question:
My Tekonsha P3 device display now only displays in red. The device seems to work as designed but I cannot get the display to change back to its proper colour.

That's a pretty odd issue to have with the Prodigy P3 part # 90195. Try unplugging it for a few seconds and then plugging it back it as a hard reset might get it to work like it's supposed to.

My P3 seems to work when pressing brake. When I release the brake it goes red. What’s up with that?

I have the same issue. Despite setting it to other colours it defaults back to the red screen. Did unplugging it solve the problem?
