No power to break controller?

   I tow with a 2011 Honda Pilot and picked up a Prodigy P3 when I bought my 171 a couple years ago.
It has worked great...up until now. No power to the controller when I plug it in!

I checked the 30 amp fuse under the hood, it looked fine, but replaced it anyway. Still no power.

I borrowed a P3 from someone else and plugged it in to see if mine was messed up, but no power to it either.

Anyone know something I don't about the Pilot? Is there another fuse somewhere that may have blown?

Thanks for any help!

	I don't know about the pilot. But I did have issues with no power going to the brake controller and a few lights on the trailer. I was able to correct it by pinching the prongs a little on the trailer plug. They had widened over the years and not making good contact. Hope that helps. LMK how it goes. Good Luck.

	Finally figured it out...it was the 20A trailer emergency brake fuse. Found that label on the box diagram and pulled it, and sure enough it was dark. I guess if that goes out the whole thing quits working. Headed to Boone next week and really didn't want to be in the mountains with no brakes!
