IF you pulled the E brake with the controller hooked up. You could have fried the controller. Check the pins on the truck to be sure the controller is still working.

I'm curious what you're basing this on? I've pulled my pin many times with the trailer hooked up and never fried a controller. In fact, I've used it as a secondary emergency brake when parked on a very steep grade many times and never experience a fault with either a Prodigy or a Tekonsha controller.

The same here, I just want to know if anyone has experienced the same issue as I have, not being able to set the controller to 6 volts like the manual says, I hate to spend a 100 bucks on a new controller if it isn't bad, it's just I cannot set it at 6 volts, it shows 12 volts then starts dropping to 0 volts within a few seconds

By all means call Tekonsha. Best customer service there is. If the controller is bad they will replace it at no cost to you.

I suspect you have a wiring problem and not a controller problem. Read the Prodigy manual carefully so you have a good understanding how a prodigy works. From what I have read in this thread not sure most really understand how the Prodigy works.
