Here is a police artist's drawing of the assailant (pretty good if you ask me)
Here is a sketch of the alleged female accomplice, seen leaving the Porsche Parts department shortly before the alleged attack, shown carrying 2 new Cayenne horn (fishbowl) assemblies...

Quite unusual for a (super) moderator to clutter up an otherwise legitimate thread with unrelated attempts at humor. Is there some comedy club clique here that I don't know about?

Nevertheless, the very same Prodigy worked perfectly with my Touareg factory hitch. I'm hoping the dealer can track the current errors down to the Porsche trailer control unit.

how did you get the Prodigy RF to work???!? I have one that I'm on the verge of returning. I have tried over and over and it won't pair. All my local Tekonsha dealers get glassy-eyed when I tell them there is a wireless brake controller on the market

It doesn't weigh 15 pounds by the way, I doubt it even weighs 15 ounces.

About the emulator, at what stage of the pairing process does it come into play? I'm guessing it plugs into the RF's module after the P5 to PA countdown?
I have never been able to get the thumbwheel on the handheld to change the power level.

Well the initial pairing has held over two years and on two vehicles. So my recollection is a bit fuzzy. Pretty sure I recorded the procedure over at myturbodiesel.com (Touareg forum). But essentially when stopped cold while following Tekonsha instructions I plugged int the emulator. When that enabled me to overcome the stumbling block, I plugged the controller harness back in. From there the Tekonsha instructions finished the job
