I just bought my first M916... With a cat 7155 trans. Nice truck. I'm going to use it under a lowboy and a dump trailer. But first i have to work out some bugs.
The wires from the jake brake pedal run into the 7155 trans. Can I bypass that (wire it like a civvy manual trans truck) or is it telling the trans to do something different when the jake is activated (holdback etc ). My jake is erratic ,it hits on all 6 a good part of the time. It stutters on 4-5 cyl here and there. Ive gone thru all the connections and jake servos. I'm wondering if its a neutral switch so the jake cant work unless the trans is in gear. On a different subject, My trans has a pretty noticable gear whine in the lower 8 gears. Its ALOT more noticable when hot. Do these transmissions all make this much noise on the low side ?
