Air line indicator
I need help with the main air line indicator, which is constantly flashing red. Parking brake is released.

Below where the train brake is, there should be a valve handle. turn that to face down. It's a cutout and should only be active on the lead locomotive.

Is your brake cutout valve open..?

1. Parking brake
2. A valve in the cab for brake controls is closed
3. You have 2 locos (or more) connected as MU. Each of them you're not operating from should have that brake valve in the cab CLOSED and in the one you've operating form should be OPEN.

Edit: damn, I misunderstood the comments, there is indeed a new yellow valve which was the issue. Thx all.

I've got the same issue with a DH4, brake line valves are closed, hand brake released. Brake air reservoir at 8 bar but the train brake line does not charge and the indicator keeps flashing.
