1994 newmar pressure alarm going off while going down road
What does the pressure gauge read? Do you have a major leak or a compressor failure? - wolfe10ExplorerCould be something as simple as the governor that controls the compressor or a massive leak.
Do NOT attempt to drive until this is resolved. As I am sure you are aware, if PSI drops below 30, the emergency/parking brake WILL deploy.
First step is to listen for a leak. If that is not it, replace the governor-- should not be over $25.
Sure, it could be something more expensive, but start with the cheap and easy. - UpstateExplorerPressure is good on gauge. I drained air tanks.
- fcooperExplorerIt could also be the air pressure sensor. I don't know where it would be located on the newmar. A lot of the monaco coaches have it just below the parking brake pull actuator. Some freightliner chassis have it along the rear frame rail driver side.
Fred - path1ExplorerFreezing weather it started doing it in?
- BTPO1ExplorerI don't have air brakes, but is it possible that you have moisture in your air lines that is freezing? Just thinking.
