First steps
- Stop where it is safe and watch the air pressure gauges.
- Listen with the engine off to find where the hiss comes from.
- Check the glad hands, seals and the lines between the tractor and trailer.
- Do not move the truck if the pressure will not build.
What to tell the provider
Whether the leak is on the tractor or the trailer, where you hear it, whether pressure builds, and your exact location.
Why it happens
Common air leaks come from worn glad hand seals, cracked air lines, leaking brake chambers, valves and fittings. A mobile mechanic or trailer repair service can often find and fix the leak at the truck.
