Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller Spec Review- Video
Today were going to review part #90885. This is the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Break Controller. This is a proportional brake controller, which will activate your trailer brakes in proportion to your vehicles braking action. It will automatically adjust the trailers braking based on the deceleration of the tow vehicle, and it will activate immediately so theres no pausing like with your time-delay brake controllers. This controller does have an automatic leveling ability. Theres an internal sensor on the inside which will detect deceleration, even if the controllers not mounted flat. more
Choosing Between Tekonsha Brake Controllers- Video
When it comes to choosing a brake controller, a lot of them are gonna look very much the same. And two of them that I really like are from Tekonsha. We have the Prodigy P2 and the Prodigy P3. So, they look very similar, but they do have quite a few differences and we're hoping to break that down, that way you can decide which one's best for you. Here we have our P3 installed and really it comes down to it has more bells and whistles than the P2, otherwise it's pretty much the same controller. The P3 does have a nicer/easier to use display. more

Ultimate Overview of the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller- Video
Speaker 1: Today, we're gonna be taking a look at Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Proportional Trailer Brake Controller. This works for one, up to four, axles. The part number is 90885. The Tekonsha Prodigy P2 is a really good choice when it comes to brake controllers. It offers proportional braking, which in my opinion is the safest braking that we have available with brake controllers, versus the time delayed systems, which just had a general ramp into which the power we're gonna be applied to the brakes when you hit them. This brakes in relation to the force that you're actually exerting on you pedal. more

The Tekonsha Prodigy P2 is a truly proportional brake controller, which allow us to control from one to four axles of electric trailer brakes. By being truly proportional it'll apply the brakes on your trailer in direct proportion to the amount that your towing vehicle's slowing down. If you're going down a hill you don't have to worry about false triggers being activated because the brake controller is not activated at all until you apply the brakes in your vehicle. When you apply the brakes it shows how much power is going to your trailer brakes. Now, as you hold the brakes for awhile it dials down the power so you don't have to worry about your magnetics on your trailer brakes becoming overheated and shorting out. more
Today in our 2015 Chevrolet Express Van we'll be installing the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller, one to four axles proportional. It's part number 90885.

The blue light's gonna let us know that it's getting power, however if we apply the brakes it's gonna tell us NC letting us know that our trailer is not connected. Once I hook up my trailer we're gonna have a C letting us know that the trailer is connected. At a quick glance you can already tell if your trailer's hooked up or not.Our Prodigy P2 is gonna be a proportional brake controller and what that means is it's gonna have an internal sensor that's gonna realize how much we're slowing down so when we apply the brakes on our truck it's gonna apply the same amount and at the same time to our trailer. Opposed to time delay brake controllers which are just gonna apply the brakes as soon as you hit the brakes there's gonna be a small pause and then they're just gonna ramp up and apply the brakes to the maximum power. more
Today in our 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, we're going to be installing Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller.With Tekonsha's plug-wiring adaptor.This is a proportional trailer brake controller that works up to four axles. What's really nice about it being proportional is that the harder you brake here in the vehicle, the inertia sensor inside the brake controller's gonna detect that and appropriately apply the brakes on your trailer behind you to insure that it's stopping the same as your vehicle.The output for the trailer brakes can be adjusted here. So if you need to fine-tune it for your specific trailer, you can do that.There's a boost button located on the top on the right. And this is for the various boost settings that are available. There's off, one, two, and three.Boost setting one is for when you have a trailer that's slightly less than the weight of your vehicle.Boost two is for when you have a trailer that's weighs roughly the same as your vehicle.And boost three is for when you have a trailer weighs more than your vehicle.That will help adjust that inertia sensor readout to help apply the brakes appropriate for that trailer weight.We begin our installation by plugging in our wiring adapter. You'll need to access the fuse panel and the lower left kick panel on the driver's side. more
Speaker 1: Today on our 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, we're gonna be having a look at and installing the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller, part number: 90885, in conjunction with our Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers, part number: 3016. Here's what our brake controller looks like installed. We already have a trailer plugged into our truck, so we have a "C" right here, which shows that we have a working electrical connection between the two. If we're trailer we're to ever become unhooked from the back of our truck, or we have an electrical fault, "NC" will be displayed here on the screen to let us know that we have a problem and our brakes on the trailer aren't working.Now, what I really like about this brake controller is that it gives us the functionality in order for us to tow a trailer that has up to four axles, so we can have up to eight electric brakes on our trailer. Also, we have the ability to tow a trailer that has electric over hydraulic brakes with no input required from us at all on the brake controller in order to make the setting change for that to work. It'll happen automatically. more
Today on our 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, we're going to install the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller, part number 90885. We're also going to be using the Tekonsha Plug-in Wiring Adapter. That part number is 3016. Here's what the P2 is going to look like when you get it installed in your vehicle. This is a proportional breaking system, so this is going to take the inertia from your vehicle and translate that into breaking power using the accelerometer located inside. So on very quick and abrupt stops, where we're really trying to stop quickly, this is going to go right up to our maximum power rapidly and deliver that braking to us when we need it in an emergency. When we're in city streets and just slowly on and off the brakes just trying to maintain speed, this is going to do it much more gradually, reducing the heat build-up in our brakes and also only using what we need at that time. The "C" here is going to indicate that we've got a trailer connected, so if you see a "DC" come up, it means you've got a disconnect situation. more

And then we will just wrap up our purple and white wires. Our white wire is going to go directly to the frame for ground.
