Dave,
As you have figured out the cold weather wreaks havoc on the air systems. Rubber seals that are fine at normal temps are stiffer when it gets cold and let air out.
Another problem when the cold weather hits is water will freeze in the lines and will sometimes burst components.
If you will get a bottle of kids bubble solution (Dollar general) and coat the components, you will see where the air leak is.
Most of the connections that you have in your pictures are “push on” connectors that will eventually all cause problems. You want to find “D.O.T” rated connectors. Once installed they will last forever.
In older coaches, the 110 compressor fed to a tank located in the bay under the passengers seat. Can you take a picture of that bay?
