Air releasing from a regulator can occur if the pressure downstream of the regulator is higher than the setpoint of the regulator. Air should not continually release from a regulator.
How could the first scenario happen. When the coach sits, if the drive air bag system leaks just a bit, more weight will transfer to the tags with your setup. That weight bearing on the tag bags will generate more air pressure in the bag. When you open the travel solenoid, that pressure would make it's way to the regulator. BUT, if that is indeed happening, the leakage should eventually stop.
The second scenario is that the regulator seal or diaphragm has failed. That would result in continual air leakage and possibly very little air making it's way to the tag.
I hope this helps. Did it leak the entire time the key was on? Or did it leak and then stop?
