    can someone tell us where the - air gauge sensor's are for air pressure -
    in the dash - all the tests work indicating the gauge works - also drained tanks.

    would love to know where the sensor is for the Air Gauge in the instrument panel.

    Truck is a Volvo 2012 - 670 VNL

    Thanks in advance !!!

    Air gauges have gone electronic now? Those are the only mechanical gauges I have on my truck...always figured it was a safety thing, so that even if everything else on the dash quit working, you'd know how much air you had in the system. Not sure I like the idea of those being electronic...but then I've never really been a fan of the whole fly-by-wire thing, either.

    Open your tanks drain and see. Stand back though 200 PSI will cut your fingers off.

    If truck was idling all night could be faulty governor. If you just turned ignition on probably sensors circuit or dash. You can run dash test in driver menu Sweep Instruments to check

    This time it happened when it was idling over night and it’s first time they both did it at the same time. I’ve seen bottom gauge do this before while I was driving on a highway and usually on a bumpy road like in Indiana. After a couple engine start ups upper air gauge went to normal operation, but bottom one still was doing the same. So yesterday while waiting for loading I disconnect battery’s for like an hour, just after reconnecting them and on a start up it did reset the bottom one

    Did you run instrument panel diagnostic test?
