ONLY ONE HOUSING OPERATING
1. Determine which housing is not operating by
closing all the switches and checking the
power at the wires leading to the solenoid
valves (front and rear).
2. Remove the wire to the solenoid valve at the
cylinder head cover/spacer and check for
resistance (refer to the table on page 121).
No reading indicates an open circuit in the
wire or solenoid coil. A low resistance
reading indicates a short to ground in the
solenoid wire or solenoid coil.
A constant 12-volt low amperage signal is
supplied to the engine brake solenoids by the
V-MAC III module when the ignition switch is
turned on. During an engine braking event,
V-MAC increases the current to the solenoids to
activate the engine brake. The most accurate
method of checking electrical function of the
engine brake solenoid circuits is by using an
ammeter to measure current at the solenoids
when the engine brake is activated. When the
engine brake is activated, current should be
approximately 1.59 amps. For additional
information, consult the V-MAC
®
III Service
Manual, 8-211.
3. Test the solenoid by checking for current
draw and pull-in voltage per specifications
listed in the table on page 121.
J-TECH™ SOLENOID SPECIFICATIONS
INTERMITTENT BRAKING
Inspect all wiring for loose connections and all
switches for proper adjustment.
POOR PERFORMANCE
Connect a volt/ohmmeter (multimeter) to the
electrical connector on the valve cover/spacer.
Verify that a steady voltage signal is present
when the engine brake is active. If not, check for
loose connections or faulty switches. Repeat for
all valve cover/spacer terminals.

SPECIAL TOOL REQUIRED

Jacobs Oil Pressure Test Kit 4559-18280
Remove the covers to begin inspecting the brake
components, including housings and attendant
hardware.
GENERAL INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
VERIFICATION
1. Visually inspect the brake units for obvious
damage or missing parts. Replace as
necessary.
2. Check the slave piston-to-actuator pin for
proper clearance as shown in the table on
page 122. Also check the intake and
exhaust valve clearance. Readjust if
necessary.
Valve clearance must be checked with the timing
pointer hole on the flywheel housing aligned with
the proper valve setting mark on the flywheel for
the cylinder being checked. This ensures that the
valve lifter is on the camshaft base circle and not
on the brake ramp portion of the lobe.
Wear eye protection and do not expose your
face over the engine area. Keep hands away
from moving parts. Take precautions to
prevent oil leakage down onto the engine.
Whenever engine is running and the valve
covers are removed, oil splashing in the
engine brake area could cause personal
injury.
Never remove any engine brake component
with the engine running. Personal injury may
result.
