MAINTENANCE
Auto Reset (Sensor) Valve Performance Check
To check the Sensor Valve for proper adjustment and
operation, perform the following procedures.
Failure to chock tires prior to beginning
maintenance could allow vehicle rollaway
which, if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
NOTE:
Apply air system pressure in excess of 85 psig (5.9 bars)
before doing performance check.
1. Disconnect the auto reset (sensor) valve lower linkage connection to
the EDL rod assembly. Rotate valve arm up approximately 20˚ and
hold (FIGURE 19). Air should flow through one-way check valve
ports to air springs (FIG. 19).
2. Move valve arm down 20˚ (FIGURE 20) and hold. Disconnect the
primary height control valve upper linkage connection. Rotate
primary height control valve arm down approximately 45˚ and hold
for 5-10 seconds. Air should flow (exhaust) out top port of auto
reset (sensor) valve (FIGURE 20).
3. Reconnect sensor valve and primary height control valve linkages.
In the event replacement of the
sensor valve is necessary, replace with
sensor valve ONLY. Use of primary height control valve
(1/4˝ [6.35mm] or 3/8˝ [9.53mm] air lines) in place of
sensor valve will result in malfunction of the auto reset
feature and possible damage to suspension and/or trailer.
NOTE:
To prevent side loading on sensor valve linkage
connection—fastening hardware MUST be assembled as
shown in (FIGURE 21) for proper function. If not
assembled as shown, disconnect linkage assembly and
refasten as shown.
