Question:

My Prodigy P2 has a blue and red probably #16 ga. and a white and green probably # 20 ga. The Ranger has a blue and yellow with a red tracer probably #16 ga. and a white and purple with white tracer probably #20 gauge. Any information on how those wire to each conductor. Thank you.

When we installed the Prodigy P3 # 90195 (which has the same pigtail as your P2 # 90885) on a 2021 Ford Ranger we made the following connections from the pigtail to the OEM wiring on the truck:

Blue - Blue
Black - Yellow w/tracer
White - White
Red - Purple w/tracer

If you jump to the 15:27 minute mark of the linked video you'll see us making those connections.
