    If its venting air then you have a bad inversion valve in the step box or treadle valve Only should vent with brakes applied

    Bad check valve they honk. Shouldn't do that. . Leak is on the wet tank or pressure protection. Put a gauge on the wet tank drain. Fill with air. Close both valves. If it drops air pressure Down to 60psi but then holds pressure after that then you have a pressure protection side leak. If it...

    M939s are not designed like normal trucks. If the secondary is holding air it will fill the spring brake tank and take over those duties. They both send air to a valve that allows air from either tank to supply depending on which has the most pressure

    Wet is under the truck. Right in front of the transfer case. Primary is top passenger tank. Secondary is bottom. Spring brake is on the drivers side behind step Primary air lines are red. Secondary are green. Pressure protection is yellow. Vent is white.

    Find the leak. The air dryer only sees air from the wet tank. It doesn't see what the gauges display. You have a leak on the primary side or you have a leaking check valve causing a back flow. Shut your primary air tank valve. Located on the front of the wet tank. Your system will...
