    Thanks for these videos. The only thing I'd change is putting more focus in the beginning of the video where the student begins to cut in and then follow his tires. For a new driver i would take note of that, the timing / length/ straighten out time of the steers.

      You would have to complete a knowledge test for the class of license you are upgrading too, Also an Airbrake knowledge test at your local registry after taking the Airbrake course and acquiring your Certificate of Completion for that Airbrake course from the place you did the classroom theory. Then when you do your Provincial road test the Airbrake procedure for Class 3 is what you will have to demonstrate as part of your pre-trip inspection in the yard prior to the drive portion.

    Great video John. I have a small question, with newer trucks that charge first the secondary tank and the primary starting to charge only after secondary has reached 100 psi, is it the same procedure? I have been told it changes to 60 to 100 psi

    • @protruckdrivertipswithjohn9658
      @protruckdrivertipswithjohn9658 6 місяців тому

      Yes same procedure, Just remember... Start timing when the first air service tank gauge reaches 50 p.s.i and stop timing when the other service tank gauge reaches 90 p.s.i

    Quick question, I go for my test tomorrow. I do the 2 minute leak test and it sounds like purging from one end of the truck to the other almost like a “pshhh” “pshhh” sound than it stops at around 90psi. Drops about 30psi total than it levels out. Is this normal? Many mechanics have said it’s normal but I’m not 100% fixated that it is. Please respond as soon as possible

    • @protruckdrivertipswithjohn9658
      @protruckdrivertipswithjohn9658 7 місяців тому

      It sounds like purging from the ABS modules. when you turn the engine off and put the key into the on position, Wait for the clicking of the modules to stop, then perform the leak check. that should fix your issue. :)

  • @foxcrow1765
    @foxcrow1765 9 місяців тому

    With the gauge measuring PSI in 25PSI increments, how do you know if you lose 6 psi over two minutes? That must be an awfully small move on the gauge. Is it a case of, "if there is a problem you will know for sure?" Or, is it if you see any noticeable lose of pressure, then you need to go find where the leak is coming form? Or both sometimes? Glad I found your channel.

    • @protruckdrivertipswithjohn9658
      @protruckdrivertipswithjohn9658 9 місяців тому

      Yes the psi loss is pretty much no more than the width of the needle on the guage. Because the airbrake system is a sealed system, there should be no unregulated air leaks. Hope this helps you out and thanks for watching 👀 😊

      There is alot more in regards to the actual system, but yes, before challenging the knowledge test it is wise to remember the procedure and pressures as it is also required to be demonstrated on a Provincial road test. And included on a driver's daily pre trip. Hope this helps you out. Thanks for watching 👀 🙂
