dryer repeadadly going off

I have a 2012 780 with a d13.. just recently, the dryer goes off every 20 seconds or so. when the dryer goes off you can immeditly here air right around the compressor. i soaped everything up but its hard to see the whole thing. when im under the truck as soon as the dryer goes off you can feel air slowly flowing out of the dryer. the air leak sound goes off as soon as the slow flowing air stops coming out of the dryer(when the compressor comes back on)

hope that makes sense. i dont show any air loss at the gauges. is this just a leaky govenor?

compressor was replaced about 5 months ago
thanks for the help

 

Thanks!

That was it. Barely touched ot and it came right off

 

Well the fitting is bad. Going to get the compression style to replace it but when i held the line in you could still here air slowly leaking somewhere around the dryer. Maybe its leaking back there too

 

Ok, its fixed. It was just that fitting after all. Stupid thing is the thread on that fitting is m16x1.5. Of course nothing can be easy. That would take all the fun out of it. Unfortunately its still one of those lame push on connectors. Oh well...


You guys are awsome. Thanks for the help

 

Yeah, what drove me nuts about it was the uncertainty of the cost to fix it and the not so suble reminder ever 20 seconds that it was broke. Loud audible air leak too.

I cut and replaced the airlines on the pass through of the fire wall but only one actually sealed. So had to replace the whole thing. I guess manufactures use them to save time? Either way they suck
