ABSTRACT:
An exhaust braking control apparatus includes a control valve situated for movement within an engine exhaust passage to control exhaust gas flow from the engine to the atmosphere. A control unit is provided to set the control valve at a position to provide a continuously variable degree of exhaust braking effect based upon vehicle operating conditions. In another aspect, the control unit is arranged to move the control valve in a closing direction to provide an exhaust braking effect only under specified vehicle operating conditions.
