I didn’t see the brake numbers change on my TDC also.

I’m new to this, I thought that the bar graph was proportional to the movement of the brake pedal and the gain setting was the amount of voltage sent to the electric brakes on the trailer for a certain movement of the brake pedal, for example, the more gain you have, the less you have to press the brake pedal to have more voltage to the trailer brakes (more voltage = more trailer brakes). So that is why they have to have some way to adjust to sync the truck brakes with the trailer brakes, hence the adjustable gain control, or you would have the trailer dragging or pushing when you pressed the brake pedal in the truck I guess I better confirm this.
