We have just an off and on switch on ours. It has always worked just fine.

The older Newells, pre mid 1990's, typically only had a single setting on their Jake Brake. Typically, where there is only one setting, it was set to high (again, their can be no absolutes on Newells since the person spec'ing the coach got what they wanted).
