    was wondering if they sell a low air warning device that's aftermarket? like screws into a pressure tank and comes with the lite and buzzer. Need to buy somethin like this asap. anyone have any ideas. The one in my kenworth W900B never came working , it doesn't lite up or make a sound, i rather install one and run new wiring myself[FONT=Trebuchet, Trebuchet MS][/FONT]

    Hope you get it fixed before you get an inspection. Otherwise I think you will be put out of service until it is fixed. Why not try going to KW for the part?

    Stewart Warner makes a simple 2 terminal buzzer/light combination that can be wired to work with any low air switch. You should be able to find one on Ebay or Summit Racing.

    Any pressure switch will work, along with a light and buzzer. Just google air pressure switch and look at them. With a simple relay a pursue switch from a shop compressor will work just a well. All you need is a power write to one terminal, the other terminal will feed the light and buzzer, instead of kicking the compressor on.
