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.
