FMTV CTIS system

Friends,
I'm having problems with my CTIS on a 2.5 ton FMTV. The front tires went down while sitting. I aired them up with an air compressor. When I started the truck all the lights flashed. On one wheel air was leaking around one of the connections. When I shut it down the leaking stopped.
Do these connections have O-rings or some other seal that may be bad, allowing the air to escape?
How do I fix this? Or should I disable the system? How do I disable the system?
Thanks!
Keith

Air up tires. Remove banjo bolt put plastic bag scrunched down over banjo and hose. Use rubber band to make airtight. If air is leaking thru the wheel valve the bag will expand.
