He didn't actually say what it's function was, he said what happens when it fails. It prevents air from discharging out of the supply and service glad hands/lines when the truck is bob-tailed or if the lines get torn off in the event of the trailer becoming un-coupled.
Hello, been driving crazy the same air leak when I pressed the brake pedal when BT, I replaced that part and is all gone, thank you, this video was really helpful, 2002 freightliner century.
Thanks! Had that problem and replaced the TPV yesterday. Wish I had seen your video earlier! However now I have another problem, probably unrelated. When pressing the foot brake air is coming out of the vent line from the dash valves instead... Ordering a rebuild kit for the dash valve now.
Thanks buddy I’m having the same problem driving pulling trailer losing air pressure when applying break’s I replace they same valve plus I think there call check valve at the end of hose connecting to that valve but when I tested it it happened again now it’s coming out from the from big air valve on the firewall dammit what’s going on I’ve replaced that valve before well maybe several years ago still braking my head wondering what is going on thanks thought I share….
