jacobs retarder

[Peggy & Ed McStay]

jim matus---thanks for the reply on the retarder. i have checked the
things that you told me to check and i did find the star washer that
helps to make the ground. it was dirty and loose. i cleaned it up and
reinstalled it. as for the control box with the lever i still do
not have power to it. i have tried to fine where the power enters the
box but with all the wires a mess i have yet to fine the power. on the
83 bb didnt put a switch on the dash for on and off. all that is on the
dash is a light that tells you when the retarder is on. it has worked
just fine and all of a sudden it stopped. will keep looking for the
power source to the box and if you thank of anything that will help me
please let me know. thanks again for the reply and may god bless you
and yours.
