Default Problem with Jet Tronic Dual Valve

Hi Lads,
I have a brand new Jettronic Dual Valve installed in a XL, I have just programed it as per the instructions, and it is switching fine. Port 1 is connected to the air tank (with fill) and 2 and 3 are connected to the gear.

When ever I put some air in the system, it just rushes out of somewhere! After further investigation, it is coming from the valve somewhere! When I clamp the air in tube (to port 1) the pressure builds up fine, as soon as i remove the clamp, the air rushes out from (what seems like) the port above it!

Operating the valve makes no difference!

Any ideas?

I had the same thing two weeks ago, I had a single jet tronic valve that came with my jet 1A retracts just letting all the air go, I explained this to sandor at Digitech and he said it was faulty and promptly replaced it, great service from him to.
