If we monitor between the blue and white past the plug on the trailer, the voltage goes from nothing to .046 when the truck brakes are applied.

Wow, not good (obviously)! Next step, measure the voltage between Blue (brake power) and a real metal ground, not any ground wire such as White. First do it fom Blue to Trailer Ground. Then if you see the same really low voltage, do it again, monitoring from Blue to tow vehicle Ground.
Another approach that will test the same thing is to get out a jumper cable, clamp one end to a bare spot on the Tow Vehicle frame, and the other end to a bare spot on the TM frame. Now see if the Prodigy is happy and the brakes work.
If things are still bad, try to pick up Blue in the tow vehicle, and repeat the measurements.
As you can tell, I suspect a ground problem. But let us know what you find, and we'll go for a next step.
