The risk
A leak may arise near the pressure sensor in the axle modulators, proportional relay valves and trailer control valves from the firm WABCO due to the loosening of the connection between pressure sensor and support. As a result, braking pressure may not be correctly regulated. The braking pressure applied may, under certain conditions, be too high on one side of the rear axle and higher than expected by the driver on the front axle.
