Tekonsha P3 color ?

I have my P3 set on the green display. Some times when it turns on it is green & sometimes it is the factory blue. Does anyone's else do this?

Once i set the color on mine, I think it stays the same all the time. Ill have to check tomorrow. If yours is bad, take it to any Teknosha dealer and trade in it in as defective. Its got warranty.

When I first started it this morning they were blue. Then when I restarted it this afternoon they were green. If I recall correctly, it is the first time it is illuminated each day that it is blue. Weird.

Mine is set on blue. When I start it up it goes to Orange with the "no trailer" message.
Then it returns to blue and stays there.

How do ya'll like those controllers? Are they the same as the Prodigy? My new to me truck needs a better controller and since Jordan is out of biz and I can't afford a Maxbrake, I need a compromise. Right now it has a time based Redline in it and I want something better.

Is it jerky and do you have to constantly mess with it or is it like my Jordan...just set it once and forget it?

So far, so good with mine. I especially like how you can mount it to almost 90 degree angle. I tucked mine up on the knee plate above the accelerator pedal.

Nice unit.

Yes, the color does NOT change on mine when I set it. Its been blue for months.
THis controller is AW-SOME. Plus, if you need to warranty it, just take it to any tekonsha dealer and they will swap U out a new unit.
Works very smoothly. Have them in my dodge , wifes D-max adn my CTD at work. They are great.
