    I have a 2000 w900L KW and air leaks from what to apears to be an open hole about the size of 1/4 inch air line on the outside firewall.The leak only occurs when the trailer supply valve is pushed in. When it is leaking if you put your finger lightly over the hole the trailer supply valve will pop out . Anyone have any Idea what is wrong I want to stop this air leak .

    You are referring to the red air valve for the trailer?

    Sounds like an internal leak on the MV3 valve
    Blowing out exhaust port. Pull dash apart and see where the line from park brake valve runs to air manifold.
