    You can try the brake application pressure sensor switch. On new W9 and T800 plus T660 it is behind dash gauge panel below light switches. Factory part #Q21-1041. Amazon lists it for PACCAR, Volvo, Freightshaker.
    $351 from dealer or $89 from Fleetpride if you need it next day. Amazon has them for $18.97 but shipping from California so it may take a week to get to you.

    Big thanks to JoshK85 for the info and Amazon link.

    Replaced the valve and still doing the same thing. First time I started it the lights were on, drained all the air they went out. Started it again filled up the tanks lights came on so I drained them and they wouldn't go off so I had to unplug them and get some sleep, but I'm so baffled about this I can't sleep!

    Freightliner has a campaign to replace the brake switch.

    They were crapping out internally.
