volvo fm help

i’m just wondering if anybody can help me i’ve got an FM 12 380 VOLVO on a Y plate
the air dryer is blowin off no problem
but the guages are in the red
thanks in advance

sounds like the regulator on the compressor needs winding down a bit, it will still blow off buts its obviously set too high, my old scania used to do it all the time, kept have to put it right about every 3 months

My Fh used to do that sometimes. I used to drain all air tanks (Messy I know) and it was ok after that.

i used to do the same thing with a f10 years ago,always solved the problem for me.

den it sounds like your regulator is stuck and its built into the air dryer, you have to replace the whole unit its a common fault on them wev got 16 of them

normaly you have to change the filter on the dryer every year,
