What Happens When....... Brake Controller Question

So what happens if you run a brake controller rated for only 2 axles on a 3 axle trailer?

I have been running this way for a little while, and I just haven't gotten around to installing a new controller.

What I have noticed is it never seems like the same axles lock up twice in a row. Its almost a crap shoot as to which lock. And, they do LOCK, geeze it is annoying to smoke the tires every time I touch the pedal.

Curious as to why this happens, I would have figured all three axles would have gotten some voltage, just not enough. But that isn't the case, the current seems to pick two axles.

Curious as to why this happens?
