anyone having problem with airbag leaks?

[linthib]

We are very frustrated. Purchased 2007 Travel supreme . Have had leaks in air bag system. Had valves replaced but still will not hold air to the point we cannot drive it any distance. Help!

[linthib]

Thank you!
It was the dump valve that was the problem.
Actually the filter that allows the air intake was clogged---now I just have to find out where to get those and order a bunch.

Do you have automatic leveling? HWH?

Most require the lines to be cut SQUARE so that he airline fits all the way in to the valve. You might have some that do not fit securely. If they are the plastic valves that could be one problem. Go to a NAPA or Car quest and see if you can get the BRASS connectors as used on big rigs. If not then go to hardware store and buy the brass connectors for 1/4 inch lines.

Another possibility is that one of the lines has a break in it someplace along the frame. I had my lines contact a tailpipe and I thought I blew a airbag? got replacement bags and then found the broken airline.

thank you!
I am having problems locating parts---Jayco says not their valve that is leaking.
Difficult if not impossible to find anyone who knows anything about RVs here in NH.
Also why isn't there a manual for all the stuff---like fuses etc?
Never mind the electronics. And everytime someone fixes something, something else is no longer working!
We are supposed to be on the road for an extended vacation---at this rate we won't be leaving the driveway!

Yup, little leaks everywhere on my after market air bags. I keep tracking them down and fixing usually at the push-on type connectors. Some day I'll replace all those connections with another more secure type. With an on-board compressor its not a big deal. I lose about ten pounds of pressure over a three hour period.

If you have automatic leveling (HWH) have them check the dump valve in the rear. Ours was leaking.

If you have an onboard compressor and tank, check the tank for leakage from the water vapor vent.

Our airbags leak out over night, I have to refill every morning. I need to crawl around with some soapy water to see if I can locate the leaks. One of the many things on my to-do-list LOL

Who replaced the valves not knowing for sure if that's where the leak was?
