    CTIS bench test harness

    Yeah, I swapped out a controller because it would not allow for deflation. Turned out the vent port on the frame was completely plugged with dead insects. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/insects-blocking-brake-vent-lines.214084/

    Anyone have picture of properly mounted air brake load sensor valve on an m1088?

    @Ronmar , if the adjustment cable were to come loose, it looks like the default condition is max braking to the rear?
