[QUOTE="barnyard, post: 2008881, member: 13921"] and once you connect the air lines, put the hand valve down, pretrip the trailer. Are the brake lights on?? turn on the air for the 2 lines at the back of the trailer. No air on the left side?? No brakes. Then when you get in the tractor, start to roll and pull the hand valve. You have checked the spring brakes (test tug), checked that air is making it to the brakes (opening the valves at the rear) and checked that the brakes work. So if you are doing it right, you are really checking them 3 times before you head out. [/QUOTE]
