FIREMAN Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Lately I've been getting a code " 36 " on the lightning bolt. It just seems to do it when I first take off in the morning.

If it shorts out against the head or valve train components the EECU will pump too much current through the wire and burn out the circuit for the engine brake (you end up with the engine brake operating on one head only). Pretty easy to replace the solenoid. Fix it ASAP so you don't have to buy a new EECU. Quote "Mebbe I'm too ugly and stupid to give up!"
