Trailer brakes frozen stuck

To add... you should never add air line antifreeze to the service line. Emergency line only.

 

Warm your trailer brakes just prior to dropping trailer to clear snow/ice/rain. then allow to cool off 10 minutes before dumping supply air.. I do this religiously when switching in snowing conditions so my switch is not dealing with frozen brake drums, he does the same.

 

How did I know this would be your reply? Oh how I wish some of you could meet the requirements to work in the oilfield.

 

Just get in a habit of never setting your brakes.

I found this in my car this morning

 

Which school in NY are you going to? I went to school in NY as well and we weren't trained how to do this either...training to the road test was the goal there...

 

The OP asked about frozen brakes. You have added nothing to this thread but to be a troll and find someone to complain about. Even if you didn't like my answer you offered nothing in exchange for a better answer.

 

Yeah check again.

 

They will break free easier in reverse, if that won't work then it's time for the hammer.

Before you stop for night use the brakes only, and not the engine brake, to slow down. long gradual pressure to warm up the brakes and evaporate the moisture from the brake pads before you park helps.

 

On behalf of the mods, both you two simmer down a bit before you find yourselves in the sin bin.
