Thanks for the wiring info. As I read through it, I realized that there were 6 wires in the plug, not the 4 that you mentioned. After following the wires back into the harness, I came across another plug that only had 4 wires, and the colors matched up. I realized that i had the wrong plug...

Correct. The only thing that displays is the miles/odometer. There are 4 pins on the back of the switches, but the connector actually has 6 wires going to it (there are 8 holes total), even though only four are used. When the vehicle lights are on, the switches light up, so I'm confident that...

That's great news! Thanks for the info. My boat trailer has surge brakes and has the 7-pin connector, as it uses the reverse light power to release the brakes when backing up.
