On our previous coach, the computer was reprogrammed so that the exhaust brake came on only if one touched the brake pedal (and the switch was on). The exhaust brake was released when the accelerator was pressed.
Our current coach is programmed in the usual fashion, but I'll have it reprogrammed next week.
Freightliner reprogrammed the previous coach and will do the new one next week.
They charged too much, $60 for about 5 minutes work - most of which was waiting for their laptop to boot.

I dunno, really, $60.00 doesn't sound too awful bad. I would think that the charge is probably not so much for the amount for work involved, but moreso for having the software to do the re-programming. I'll bet that darned software isn't cheap. You know how that goes with those types of priority software packages.
