Is my brake controller shot?

Just took the camper out for a short trip to dump my tanks and noticed that it was pulling harder than normal. I look down at the brake controller (prodigy p2) and the numbers on the readout are going all over the place without even touching the brakes. I get home and put it in park and it is still doing it. I went back to the wheels on the camper and sure enough you can hear the brakes working. So do you think my controller is shot or could it be a bad connection somewhere. Thanks

Check the plug on the back of the truck for corrosion. You may even have to open the plug up and check inside where the wires connect to the blades. When I would run the salt spreader in the winter it would cause this in the spring. Sometimes the corrosion was so bad I had to replace the whole plug.
