I highly recommend the ReadyBrake system. You could buy an entire Readybrake system for not much more than what US Gear wants to charge you for that controller that failed on yours. No electronics, nothing to fail and over-brake your toad or cause other problems. Just simple, no-nonsense cable-operated brake system that simply works, period. Almost anything that *might* one day wear out or break with the Readybrake can be bought from a local hardware store for less than $20. Its the only system I'll own.
Couldn't have said it better myself and the time for the OP to get rid of that mess is now, for around $400 that should work well with any existing tow bar. The $35 dash LED monitor is usually included with your order as well.
