Jake Brake issue
« on: September 14, 2022, 02:47:59 AM »
I had the oil and oil filter and fuel filters changed on my 2002 Patriot Thunder C12. After leaving the Cat shop I immediately started having an issue with the Jake Brake intermittently not engaging. Is it possible the oil change had anything to do with this issue, or is it more than likely an electrical issue with the Jake Brake?

John,
Doubtful the oil chg had anything to do with the Jake problem as they should have had no reason to be in that area. However, always possible they caused a faulty connection.
