This morning I left KOA Lafayette and started hearing a noise so I asked my wife to look outside the window and she told me the wheel was touching the sides, I stopped at a Pilot gas station and sure enough the coach didn’t lift to travel height (we could feel every bump on the road as well).
I went on the engine bay and there was some hissing noise coming out of there, were the valve actuators are and I thought that one of them was leaking air, also the pressure gauge read like 30 (honestly never saw the value when it was working before) I changed the coil from the valve and now I don’t hear the hissing noise but I can’t build pressure and the coach stays down.
The front wheels seem to be just fine.
Things I’ve tried:
Check if the solenoids have power some do, some don’t, not sure how that works (energized builds air?)
Tapped with a screwdriver in case some of them are stuck.
Looked at them really hard like I know what I’m doing!
What else can I do?
