Which Air dryer is this and which cartridge do I need to order?

Looks like a Wabco with a twist on.

Thanks!

Is anyone familiar with a repair kit for the pictured cylinder. Seals, wiper etc. I suppose I can remove cylinder and repair. Also I read a mention of someone calling Bode for advice. I need that contact information. The cylinder is Masat cylinder are parts available from them?

It was releasing a large amount of air. iIt stopped when I tapped the rod protruding from the end with a hammer. Does that reset it or do I need to replace it.]]>

I need some help and input. My system has been altered and I am trying to sort out what is correct and what is not correct.

I need to understand what the 12 VDC air compressor powers: Front door, interior doors and toilet.
Questions:
A) does it also provide air to the red line (brake system)?
B) What else should the 12 vdc compressor power?
C) Should it fill the aux air system?

In the current configuration the pressure switch is on the red line side, so it is monitoring the red line pressure (from the added 120 VAC compressor) not the 12 VDC output, there is a check valve inline.

The green and blue lines to the slide seals are on the high pressure side (60 psi) at the 12 VDC compressor.

The blue line / small black line for doors / toilet are on the low pressure side of regulator on the 12 VDC compressor.

My redesign is:
12 VDC compressor output to:
pressure switch
check valve to red line
regulator to blue/green slide seal lines
regulator to blue / black line to doors and toilet

A 120 VAC compressor has been added to the system in the mid-compartment, it provides air to the red (brake) system and the green (slide seal) system. See pics. I see this as a good thing, the added tank capacity helps with compressor run time.

The original 120 VAC compressor on the street side seems to be fully functional but does not provide air to my blue line (doors, toilet), I have not looked into this in depth yet. But will.

I am trying to get a handle on the 12 VDC compressor for now.

I do have an additional question regarding the entry door. Locking the door from inside the coach, this may be an air issue, can the alarm system affect locking of the door (from the inside)? how do you turn the alarm off? When I try to lock the door from the inside, I have a relay clicking in the front compartment (constant click, click, click, click). I can try to toggle the door lock switch a few times to try and get it to stop clicking.

I appreciate the help.

Need a little guidance.

The air regulator in the curb side aquahot bay seems to have gone bad, it has a body leak. Not a problem I have a new regulator.

My questions:
1) I have not figured out what this regulator is for, the slides are working properly? Any ideas?
2) To keep me from creating my next project, please let me know what psi it should be set at, I don't want to blow something out.

A couple of pics below.

I appreciate the help.

We held off on our first shake down trip, waiting for those diesel prices to crash. We depart second week of May to Key West, a few stops (New Orleans, Mexico Beach, Tampa, Orlando on the way back).

Thanks!!!!

My question is, Are these serviceable?

I was worried if I open it up, it may have O rings that may or may not be reusable. Or should I put a little light oil in the service line? The same oil I put in my air tools.]]>

We are new owners of coach #1234, our front air compressor is running constantly . I searched the forum but didn’t have any look for what I’m looking for.

The biggest leak is from the compressor(s). Wrapped in white tape into the reservoir. Is there an upgrade to this 2008 tech that can circumvent all these connections? Or at least over better system with the air release?

Thanks,

And is there anyplace that would have them on a Sunday? I'm leaving for a Thanksgiving trip on Monday morning!

I marked each set of wires before removing the coil from the solenoid. Bottom Front, Bottom Middle, Bottom Rear, etc.
Then I removed the solenoid and rebuilt each as it was removed so I could tell if there was an issue on any one circuit.
After rebuilding all 6 I reinstalled them in the reverse order. TR, BR, TM, BM, TF, and BF.
I wish I had done this before we sold our house and lost my private parking spot.

Jeff at Geno's garage relocated his six pack to the hydraulic bay. I will probably make this mod in the future.
