Our 2002 Travel Supreme air bags will not air up.
Does anyone have any ideas for us?
Thank you

It's the air valve at the back of the coach
My 42 tag started leaking at day one
When you power up and shut engine off you will hear it leaking
Sometimes releveling a second time snd then power up again will close valve and be ok until u level again
Replacement would leak again after a few times
Was leaking again when I sold and went to a new 45 select limited
The spartan 3 chassis never had that issue

Someone suggested we fully extend jacks then retract them.
It worked!
Thank y’all sooo much!

Here are a few things.
1.  There is an electronic timer in the Equalizer jack system that is responsible for opening and closing the master dump valve.
     The air pressure in the tanks needs to be above 90 psi to stop the timer if I remember correctly.
2.  If you haven't changed your desiccant filter in a long while (more than 3 years) that could make the air system slow to fill to at least 90psi.
3.  If you have other air system leaks, that could cause the air system not to fill in time to stop the timer.

What you said about extending and retracting the jacks tells me that it's likely the timer timed out.
What I normally do when my 40DS02 has been sitting long enough to bleed the air system down, is to start it up, then let air pressure build up to my normal 125psi, the hit the retract button.
Always works.

Drew is right.
I always wait till my tanks get full 125psig before retracting the jacks.
I also found out my system was very slow till I replaced the desiccant filter--so overlooked.
lots of luck !!
