What's wrong
LOW AIR WARNING PRESSURE SWITCH MAY NOT ACTIVATE THE WARNING SIGNAL UNTIL PRESSURE HAS DROPPED TO 55 PSI, RATHER THAN AT THE REQUIRED 60 PSI.
The risk
DRIVER WOULD NOT RECEIVE PROPER WARNING OF LOW AIR PRESSURE IN AIR BRAKE SYSTEM AND THIS CONDITION COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE CRASH; ALSO, VEHICLE WOULD NOT COMPLY WITH FMVSS 121.
The fix
REPLACE INAPPROPRIATE AIR WARNING PRESSURE SWITCHES.
SYSTEM: AIR BRAKES; LOW AIR PRESSURE WARNING SWITCH - FMVSS 121.VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: CLASS 8 TRUCKS AND TRUCK TRACTORS.
