Happened to me one time on a Bluebird coach when I was still a novice RVer.

Had camp hosted for 5 months.  When ready to depart could not build air pressure. Checked around, heard leak by treadle under front of coach.  Hit the brakes a couple of times and it resolved itself. Never happened againn.
Maybe the pressure release valve stuck a bit.
As you let off of the pedal.

Sorry I am getting confused on which protection valve to buy. These other cross reference valves say open at 70psi close at 65psi. This PAI valve says open 65 close 45. Would I be better off with the close at 65psi or match left tank with right tank? Thanks

Close at 65. You want more air in your tanks to stop. If your existing one close at 45 psi you need to change that one also

I had a feeling I was going to get that response. That one doesn't appear to be leaking, double the fun I guess. Thanks

Better knowing now and getting it fixed, instead of being out in the middle somewhere in the middle of the highway with the parking brake on.

My throttle valve is a substantial leak right now and I hope the parts are OTW.
