Question:

My unit show only a . in the display with no trailer hooked up. If I press the manual level to apply the brakes nothing shows on the output display. Is this normal, should I hook up a trailer first?

According to the instructions, when you have a decimal or dot displayed, it signals that there is no trailer connected. Without a trailer connected, there is no complete brake circuit so pressing the manual switch will do nothing.

Try connecting a trailer first and following the setup portion of the instructions. In case you do not have your instructions, I have included a link to them below.

I attached an FAQ page on brake controllers that you might find informative to the right.
