    They wash your truck for you, just need to ask. I think. I never have. Someone, correct me if I am wrong.

    During day time business hours get in line at the wash bay and they will thoroughly wash your truck, sometimes I will put in line and let the wash bay guys know and then will pull it in for you.

    For the sake of checking everything, is the engine brake switch on? Idk about automatics but when I drove a manual KW if you have the Jakes on when the cruise is set it would do as you say and turn on the Jakes automatically when going downhill and you get 3-4mph over your cruise speed.

    Correct. Jakes on cruise on it will slow the horse after reaching 4 mph over your cruise set speed.

    Try unplugging the washer pump on the reservoir and plugging it back in. Worked on my 680 when I did that.

    I’ll check that... I have three settings for the three levels of braking... maybe there isn’t an auto setting but already auto within the three normal settings.

    thanks

    Now I can tell Safety that I’ve already addressed the issue... :D

    Guess I’ll have to wait until my first load westward to let the horses run loose... yet legal... I’ll have to see just how far OOR the three sisters will be... lol

    {joking... joking...} :rolleyes:
