I started up my rig the other day to warm it up, and my right front airbag went way higher than I ever saw it before. Any suggestions or ideas?

Thanks,

William

After it overinflated did you dump the system and refill and what happened? Did it fill normally or did the same bag overfill again?
If this happened only once and has not happened again then I would say not to worry about it that this does happen as a fluke thing. I have seen it where one bag would not inflate but dump the system and on the next sequence everything worked fine. If it happens again then the control valve for that bag is either bad, or needs adjustment.

If this was a one time thing, this is a graphic illustration why you run up all the systems and cycle everything. Mechanical things do stick.

Do warm the engines because just starting and then shutting them down can cause moisture and condensation problems.

Good luck and enjoy.
