Everyone ready for another dumb question by Hillbilly Deluxe?
Just had this '96 W900 lease onto us and Im the one driving it for now. So in going over a few things on it and checking it out I realized I cant find the engine brake switch, lol. Im sure some switches have been moved around in 22yrs, but can someone point me in the general direction?
I can post a pic of the dash if needed.
1996 Kenworth w900

Not all trucks have jake brakes installed.

My '99 it's to the right of the steering wheel on the angles (easy reach) part of the dash. Directly below the headlight switch.

What engine ya got?
-
In my 96 it is directly under the light switches to the left of the cruise control switches
Jakes are optional so it might not have themTripleSix Thanks this. -

It definitely has it, because I couldn't shut the #### unmuffled thing off last night comin through town.
On that note, Ive actually managed to shut it off by flipping random switches but still dont know what switch it is.
My cruise control is on the steering wheel and the switches to the left of my key are Dome light, flood light, over ride shutdown and engine fan. I have 5 others that are lights, and 3 I dont know, but are all momentary switches, not an on/off or low/medium/high switch -
When you're parked just rev it up and see if it jakes down to idle. Keep flipping switches until you find the right one.

If your cruise is on the steering wheel is it a smart wheel? If so the jakes are the buttons on the right side of the wheel.
