Air valve.

Today I will be installing an air valve on my 2017 Ventana le. I will be putting it in the solenoid valve in the front of the coach where they install the valves on the more expensive coaches. My question is how do I bleed off all the air so when I remove the plug that is in the valve it doesn't shoot out like a bullet. Thanks

My Ventana doesn't have a solenoid valve but rather a quick connection air coupler with a in-line on/off valve before the coupler. It is kept in the off position until air is needed. You will need to bleed off the line connected to the air coupler, but not the entire air system.

Bleed the air tanks using the lanyards.

Thanks Everyone. I used the lanyards under the front wheel wells then installed the air valve. It works like a charm. I don't think I will ever need it I just wanted to have it. Just another toy.
