manual valves? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**LEEVON** · 01-16-2010, 11:52 PM

I've been seeing the subject of manual valves for air bags coming up here and there and I don't fully understand it.

I know that traditional systems have electric solenoids that open/close the valves, and I know that the manual valves have the air plumbed directly to them.

That is where I lose it, can somebody fill in the blanks for me? Like what is the sequence of operations? I'm sure a simple schematic would clear it all up but I can't find one.

For example: http://www.airbagit.com/product-p/air-con-35c.htm

How is the compressor and pressure switch controlled?

Thanks
