I had the Palm Beach out for a ride and all was well... I am not sure what happened to it after I parked it, but now all of a sudden it will not build air to either bag, and in fact, it will actually dump the air even when it is set to raise on either bag. The compressor is running and apparently filling the air tank, but not sure why it isn't going where it needs to go. If you hit the switches to lower, you can hear the air hissing... Just no raise. I have looked in the compressor spot in the cabinet, but I don't see or hear any hissing in there. I have no idea where the air tank is on the Palm Beach, gonna have to hunt the service manual... I did notice that the round part on one solenoid spins, and it is the middle one for the blue hose. Don't know if that has anything to do with it or not.

My friend Dave has a 78 coach, and he has 2 compressors and I didn't see any solenoids on his...Unless I'm blind...lol

Anyone have any thoughts on where to begin? I'd appreciate it.

I may just have to figure out the measurements for a couple 4x4 posts to sit under the bogies for the winter until I figure out the mystery...
