Haldex Air Dryer stuck open
So it finally happened......... Got stranded on the road. Just left for first trip out for the season. Air pressure came up normally could hear pressure release normally while hooking up toad. But a few miles down the road noticed both air pres gauges losing air. Pulled off road and heard a constant whistling noise from bottom output of air dryer. Called Freightliner and they believed the "turbo valve" was sticking in the dryer. I disconnected fittings and was able to bypass the air dryer w/a 1/2" female coupling. Back on the road and pressure is normal but annoying bleed off sound coming from tanks which I assume is the pressure relief valve since dryer is regulating pressure. Looking for suggestions as to replace or rebuild?
