have a 2017 ram 3500,been to 2 different dodge dealers. so far pcm and complete new turbo,still no exhaust brake!! i've had dodge diesels since 1989. don't have any idea what's going on thanks
 
Do you have a OBD reader that can display real time data? Try watching the Exhaust Back Pressure reading.
don't have a real time reader going back to the dealer this next week.just thought some of you are probably more up than the dealer and was trying to get some information to pass on.thanks
 
You need to provide more details. It not working at all? Weak? Issue since new? Recent issue? Does it work during engine warmup? You try on and auto settings? Is the dash saying it's on? Does the exhaust braking hp display on the dash read anything? Be sure to run the turn in tow/haul mode for the best braking.
If you're in auto mode it only brakes when you use the foot brake. In on mode it brakes when you let off the throttle.

the dash said it's on. have tried all things you mentioned. i'm not new to the cummins. this all happened when it went in limp mode.1 dealer then changed out the pcm, brake didn't work took it to another dealer and they put on new complete turbo.that was 2 days ago,break still does not work.thanks
 
I told the insurance company that they were getting ripped off by the dealer, and that I could get a better after market one for $450.00. They didnt want anything at all to do with it, so I paid my $250.00 deductible, and down the road I went.
