This is what I found out by doing some testing. Based on my test, I believe the truck uses MPH to help gauge how many volts to send to the brakes. When the truck was sitting still the most volts I would get at the plug was 9V. I then had my wife drive the truck while I sat in the bed of the truck to check the voltage. After the truck was moving (not sure at what speed) I was getting a full 13V at the plug. I hope this helps.
