Warning Buzzer
My previous non-Newell coach had a warning buzzer which had among its functions, a reminder whenever system air pressure was too low. This function was recently mentioned in a pre-trip cheklist on the Prevost Owner's forum. The main advantage of a buzzer, as I see it, would be to draw immediate attention to a loss of braking air pressure once your trip is underway. This might allow one a little extra time to get to a safe stop before the parking bake comes on automatially at about 45 psi remaining.
A check with a couple Newell buddies indicates they don't seem to have a functioning buzzer either. So I throw this open to the group - is there a buzzer that is not working, or is there no buzzer at all?
I do have a "low air" dash lamp that illuminates at about 70 psi remaining.
Thanks Russ
