## What is wrong

FMVSS 121 REQUIRES THAT THE AIR OPERATED OIL LINE TO     THE WET AIR PRESSURE TANK CONTAIN AN AUTOMATIC HIGH PRESSURE VALVE TO PROTECT    THE BRAKE AIR LINES.  THIS PRESSURE VALVE WAS OMITTED.                                                                                                            CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT:  THE OMISSION OF THE PROTECTION PRESSURE VALVE COULD      ALLOW THE AIR LINE PRESSURE TO INCREASE TO THE POINT THAT IT WOULD DAMAGE THE    AIR LINES AND WOULD RESULT IN DRAINING AIR PRESSURE FROM THE BRAKE SYSTEM        CAUSING LOSS OF BRAKES WHICH COULD LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT.


## The remedy

ADD PRESSURE PROTECTION VALVE TO THE TEE IN THE AIR          ACCESSORY LINE.


## Notes

SYSTEM:AIR BRAKES, FMVSS 121. VEHICLE DESCRIPTION:MOTORHOME.
