    It is under the violations section. 393.45D. Brake connections with leaks or constrictions. Air leak at proper connection. Axle number 1 air check rate okay.

    It says the exact identical thing for axle number five.

    It does not list any citation.

    I don't think there are fuses anywhere in my truck. I think they are all circuit breakers.

    Still, the regs require spare fuses in the truck...

    Too bad he noted the minor air leaks. Still it’s no big deal. OOS is the thing to worry about. I’ve been inspected over 65 times in 16 yrs. Along with dozens of spot log book checks, passed but no paperwork. Sign it, fax it back, and forget about it.

    That’s one thing I’ve never once been asked for. But I’ve got them just in case.

    I've never been asked either. I have seen some inspection reports that had that violation on it though. Of course the same reports had 10-15 other violations so those drivers must have really ticked off the leo.

    2 level ones in three weeks. I'm guessing TN don't care for the Cali stickers.
    One level 3. In NM. When I got pulled for speeding in a construction zone.
    None before none since.

    Texas favorite is checking back up lights.

    when they claim air leak ask them to show you. Several years ago my trailer was written up for a air leak that has not been found to this day. Was inspected in a strong wind with trucks running on both sides, no way to hear air leak, they don’t want to pass truck and trailer because they don’t want the boss to think they aren’t doing their job.
    Always have them show you and take pictures if needed.
