Ok, Iโve got 12.3v output to brakes with the lever pulled, and 10.5a. So itโs a little low, but is it significant?

Prodigy P3 controller, not giving any errors. I could get some slowing from the trailer brakes when I pulled the manual lever, but nowhere near enough. This was after brake adjustments.
I suspect poor wire connections, but donโt want to break them open without testing what I can.
With the P3 there is a simple test you can perform with the Trouble shoot option on the controller.
Selectic trouble shoot and the output current option. With the 7 way connected move the manual lever all the way and note the current reading. Now select the output voltage and move the manual lever all the way and note the voltage reading.
As I sated in a previous post a 4 wheel trailer should read about 1 amp per volt applied.
I do this test before every trip with my trailer. It only takes a couple minutes and nothing besides using the brake controller with trailer connected is required.
