    When I release the trailer parking and press the break pedal I hear an air leak, and I am talking that if I leave the pedal it will empty the tanks. I was able to locate the leak and is coming from a connector of the blue nylon coil hose, the opposite side from where you connect the glad hands. I will post a picture. Not sure what it is but we already check the break chambers. In the picture it shows IMG_0002.jpg IMG_0002.jpg the piece where it leaks but is cover with that black plastic any ideas what could be causing this leak

    Looks like a quick release valve that helps release the brakes faster after application. Valve is bad. Replace it or take it out of the system in order to get to a repair facility. JMO as none of those stars are here.
