Dodge OEM exhaust brake removal and reinstall in new truck

[klenger]

Has anyone ever removed a Dodge OEM exhaust brake and installed it in another truck? The part I am concerned about is removing the wire from the ECM connector. Any ideas?



Thanks much

You're probably not going to get the pin out of the connector without damaging it,so you may as well just cut the wire. You can get a "replacement repair" pin from Cummins.

I stopped at the Cummins shop in Henderson CO tonight, and they gave me a 4" pigtail with a pin to connect to the ECM connector and a buttsplice on the other end to connect it to the wiring harness. They also sell an extractor for about $10, but since I had already cut the wire, that wouldn't help now. Nice folks.



I am also in need of the rubber mounts to mount the pnumatic solonoid to the fire wall. I wasn't able to retrieve all of the old ones. Cummins doesn't sell them separatelly. Any ideas here would be appreciated.
