On 1099-r I changed box 7 (distribution code ) from 2 which is early distribution to 7 which is normal but federal due did not reduce by appropriate value.....???

does anyone know why taxes did not go down?

You shouldn’t change the code since the IRS will compare their form with yours. But the code 2 means there’s no penalty so the tax for both codes is the same.
