Symptom: 

Warning Light on

 

Problem:

 

System air pressure low between 10-20 PSI of regulator 
setting.

Solution: 

Check for system air leaks. Connect air supply and pressurize 
air tank. Open Tire Pilot Plus air system valve on the regulator 
box as illustrated in 

Figure 1

. If the leak is audible, use soapy 

water to pin point the leak. If the leak is not audible, disconnect 
all tire hoses from the hubcaps as illustrated in 

Figure 2

If after removing tire hoses light stays on, the leak is present 
between the hubcap and the air tank. Check the axle vents, 
hubcap fittings, air tank fittings, pressure protection valve, and 
airline external to the axle for leaking air with soapy water. If 
after removing the tire hoses the light shuts off, the leak is at 
the tire or tire hose. Reconnect each tire hose until the light 
comes back on to pin point the leak. Once the leaking wheel 
is found, use soapy water to discover the source including 
wheel hoses, valve stems, rim to tire, and tire tread. Repair or 
Replace leaking component as necessary or move to the next 
appropriate troubleshooting section below.
