ABSTRACT:
A technique for acoustically communicating through existing air brake lines between a tractor and a trailer. The diagnostic status of the trailer antilock system is communicated via acoustic signals from the trailer antilock system through the air brake lines of the trailer and into the tractor air brake line. A piezo crystal located in the tractor air brake line converts the acoustic signal into an electrical signal which may be used to illuminate a lamp providing a display on the tractor dashboard.
