MALFUNCTION
TEST OR INSPECTION
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Test 16. Check secondary air tank to relay valve supply line (7) (all four secondary air system
spring and service brake chambers (1) test low or nonexistent air pressure).
Step 1. Stop engine and open all drainvalves (2), in sequence shown, until brake system air
pressure is vented.
Step 2. Close drainvalves (2).
Step 3. Disconnect supply line (7) from secondary air system relay valve (3).
Step 4. Connect test gauge to supply line (7).
Step 6. Direct assistant to start engine and allow air system to build to normal operating
pressure.
Step 6. Direct assistant to fully apply and hold service brakes.
Step 7. Check reading on test gauge.
a. If pressure is below normal, inspect supply line (7) for blockage. Repair or replace as
necessary.
b. If pressure is normal, replace secondary air system relay valve (3) (para. 3-187 or 3-188).
c. Stop engine, drain air, remove test gauge, and connect supply line (7).
