Hey Abran.
I really appreciate the offer but I'm in the Eastern part of Tennessee. Would be a long drive. I was bidding on one on Ebay a couple of weeks ago and put a bid in up to $365 at the last minute and it sold for $375. Ugh!!!! Could have had it for little over $400 after transfer. I'll pick one up and just run with F26 pulled. Drove ok today and doesn't seem to lose air on any side.

I haven't had a chance to work on it today. We spent the entire day installing our new air packs in the trucks. Just now finished. I think I'll run the compressor a minute or two and let it lift from any settling then take the fuse back out and call it a day.

One question though, would bad calibration cause that right rear wheel to appear down and behind the car? Or is that more likely to be a sensor issue? That sensor is brand new.

Appreciate all the help, suggestions and advise.

Robert

Good question. I never pay attention to the screen. I have heard of people installing the wrong sensor and having a hard time diagnosing issues. I would look at the part number and triple confirm its the right one for that corner.

Hey,
I will update when I get iid tool in. For now just pulling F26 fuse and driving. Trying to find out too from RSW about better way to calibrate with their software. Will post more soon. Thanks for all the suggestions thus far.

I look back at my order form and verified it was correct part ordered but have not visually put my eyes on sensor number. Will do that tomorrow when I replace end of harness plug. Connector on one end had tab broken off. This is a pic I took of new sensor. Looks correct but I will get eyes on part # it has this weekend.

Post if you hear back from RSW either way. I have contacted them about an issue and never heard back.

Dakota Traveler,
That is a problem I have experienced. I generally send him an email, hear nothing for a week and resend with heading saying "2nd attempt!" Just did that this AM as a matter of fact. Very frustrating to say the least. This will make 3rd separate matter I have emailed about that I have had to do that.

Will keep you posted.

Robert

In contrast, GAP answers back to me outside of office hours. Cant say enough good things about their customer service.

I have actually had their customer service reps help me trouble shoot trucks, absolutely crazy best investment I have ever made.

I would tend to agree. Gap has great response based on an email question I sent Dec. 27th about a device of theirs for sale on ebay. They were closed till sometime early Jan. For holidays but I got a response the next day, December 28th from Patrick. Pretty impressive.
