Question:

Does the Curt TriFlex Trailer Brake Controller need to be recalibrated each time you tow or turn off the tow vehicle engine? Thanks

Nope, the Curt TriFlex NEXT # C24VV will not have to set up and be recalibrated when the vehicle is turned off, it will keep the settings you use.

My brake controller always read output3.0 when i applied my brakes. Now it varies all over the board with the same trailer a camper attached. 1.0 to 1.3 1.5 never the regular number I was used to seeing. Also i try to adjust the wheel and the numbers are all over the board. do i need to power down the controller to make it loose memory?

I think a good ol'e reset is definitely in order here. Simply disconnect the controller from power, let it sit for a bit, and re-connect the harness. This should hopefully resolve the display/power issues you're having, but let me know if it doesn't.
