What's this plug?
Howdy fellas, sorry for all the questions lately as I get used to this new coach. 2008 Monaco Monarch gasser - the plug in the picture appears to be a pressure line. I am assuming this may have been related to a supplemental brake system, but not sure. Any ideas? Thanks!

Looks like a connection for an air line. Either to use to air up tires, etc. or for a Tow Truck to air up your air system before towing.

Wrong sex for hooking up to a tow truck. Tow trucks need a mail fitting on the MH. So is that in the back of the MH or the front. My guess would be based on the type of fitting is an auxiliary air fitting for inflating tires

Is a Roadmaster Air Brake line for the toad. The other wire is a signal wire for the brakes and you should have a light on the dash somewhere. The light only works when you have the toad hooked up to the air. I have the same system.

Yes. One of my coaches was a gasser. M&G added a very small air compressor to activate the air cylinder on the toad. Worked beautiful and I still use M&G. The compressor may be well hidden but probably in a dry location. With 12V power on plug into that plug with an air tool or open line and listen for a compressor.

Now that you mention it, I heard what I "thought" was the water pump on when I first turned on the 12v from the basement shut off. BTW, this fitting is about 3/8" . Can this be used to air my tires? If its for the Toad, just bought a readybrake that I was going to use on the tow bar. Here is the disadvantage of buying a coach from a dealer vs from the original owner who likely would have explained all this to me. Live and learn.
