The mechanic in me...

{"text":"So this fellow trucker pulls in and idling his truck for a while as if he was doing a regeneration cycle. I was out getting a brisk walk when all of a suddenly what sounds like a 12 gauge shotgun goes off. Dude bolts out and opens his hood. Now the driver had his phone paired to his Bluetooth head unit to which you can hear his conversations with his emergency repair line, which took awhile to get through as he was on hold for the longest of time. Whatever the issue, it seems the ECM diagnostics being reviewed from corporate support is unable to find an issue. After an hour they finally relent and sent out a technician.\n\nSo the mechanic in me is wondering what his issue could have been and what I could possibly learn from it since I'm still a rookie.\n\nLuckily my carrier isn't so large to afford hold music.😅","videos":"[]","link":"{}","pics":"[{\"description\":\"\",\"height\":1134.0,\"name\":\"\",\"url\":\"\",\"width\":2016.0}]","canComment":true}

When I build/rebuild a truck for myself one day, every single airbag and brake can is going to get a quarter turn valve in line, that way if you ever blo an air bag or brake can out on the road you can shut the air going to it off and drive it home
