Still don't know what the problem is, but I know the sequence of events
I start the motor home, both rear and front gauges pop up to above 100 psi. I let it idle for a couple minutes, then fast idle (1000 rpm) for several minutes and pressure doesn't change. Shut off the engine and went outside and walked around the RV, but couldn't hear anything. Started back up and pressure went to over 100 psi. By the way, I initially thought just the fronts weren't airing up.....well, it's both front and rear bags. Anyway, released the parking brake and front pressure dropped to 65, rear dropped to about 90 and bags filled. Gauges indicated well over 100 psi with a minute or so.............so at that point everything is fine, however, the bags should fill prior to releasing the parking brake. When I say above 100 psi, my gauges have markings at 100 then 150.......and needles appear to be about midway. Called the shop I use and taking it in next week. Any ideas? Thanks........and a Merry Christmas.
