Default Exhaust brake coming on during acceleration
does anyone know why the exhaust brake comes on when you first accelerate ? It Robs the power and then the brake goes off and the truck takes off but during the first throddle push it hesitates because of that brake.

Hi Davemoritz,

Sorry to hear about this! If you end up deciding to visit your local dealership for further diagnosis I'd be happy to offer assistance if needed. Just send us a PM with your VIN and let me know.
