LOW BATTERY FUSO CANTER PROBLEM EXHAST BRAKE

Not familiar with the 2009 but I'm pretty sure earlier models use vacuum to activate the exhaust brake. More likely to be a vacuum problem.

IFbattery is low exhaust brake how it works?

I would have commented earlier but had hoped that someone with a later Canter answered.
As Kerry has said that on the earlier Canters the exhaust brake is operated by a Vacuum Cylinder mounted to the exhaust brake unit (I'm hopeing the same on later Canters) but there is an electrical solenoid valve that turns the vacuum on and off as need be. Would this valve have a problem with low voltage and not work properly -- certainly possible . I guess the answer is fix the low Battery problem first and then trouble shoot the exhaust brake problem.
Maybe we also need more info on what you are actually chasing.

ok lets start .my truck has only 12000 kilometers i bought it new since 2009 as you understand the battery is time to change .
i drive 3 times very slow in the city 20 kilometers ropes never more than 2000.i stop use crane for 15 minutes and i stop the car.
after 5 minutes i get in the car and battery is almost empty it starts very hard after 20 seconds on start the key and then first check engine flashes
i drive again very slow because i was in town 20 kilometers never more than 2000 ropes and my car when i stop i start again i think dpf is full the car trys to make regeneration but the low battery sets the car in first chek flashin and it canot do this.is there any posibility the low battery couldnt turn the exhaust brake and the car tried to make parking regeneration when i used the crane and beacause i was driving very slow the battery never charged?

now i take off the battery and charge it with a charger i puted it on again started the car and now nothing is flashing for 5 minutes the car was working well but i am afraid to ride it in the road because i think i have and bad quality diesel in it i went in a mechanik after the flashing of the lamp and he said to me that he must clan an injector but i am not trust him and here in my city we dont have oficial fuso service in our island.i am afraid for the car is new please can you help?thanks zac

Okay I'll start.
If the battery is the original one as in new in 2009 then it is probably at it end and should be replaced with a new one as it didn't seem to charge enough with the runs that you have done with it. It looks like it won't hold it's charge any more.
Do you have a check engine light on. If so then something needs looking at. With the mechanic saying that it needs to have an injector cleaned - Does it have a miss in the engine?
If you believe that it has bad diesel in it - drain it and fill with good diesel and change to new fuel filters.
I can't help with resetting check engine lights as my Canter doesn't have a engine computer but hopefully some one will chime in that does have one.

tackle the simple obvious first. New battery. That will probably change how everything else happens. Then look again at other symptoms / signs of things not working.

Do you have a diagnostic tool? I believe there are some general after market (not expensive) ones that will read 2009 vehicle. Someone here will have the right manual/doco.

air filter as well? May be worth trying another new fuel filter.



is it turbo? Is that working correctly?

after that it gets a bit beyond do-it-yourself. Sometimes diesel fuel additives can help clean injectors.
