4106 brake relay valve
« on: February 18, 2022, 04:07:14 PM »
Can someone point me to the modern replacement for the rear brake relay valve for 4106. It has single circuit brakes.

 I was adjusting slack and my helper did a heavy apply and both rear stayed applied. Fronts were retracted but not rears. Cracking a chamber line its still got pressure.  Eventually it drains off and chambers retract.

This valve has three mounting holes.

DD-3's not releasing?  Try a couple more applications.

Didn't think that the 4106 had DD3 brakes. Have these been changed?

Richard -

DD3 brakes were an option on late production 4106s.

I guess first, how many hoses connected to each brake chamber? Two or three?  Can't see from here.

How did this stray onto DD3?

OP has identified a lazy releasing relay valve, and said it has 3 mounting holes...

Winter fever is setting in...
