A method includes positioning a gladhand coupler of a vehicle adjacent a gladhand receptacle of a trailer, delivering pressurized fluid through a pneumatic channel and out a pneumatic port of the gladhand coupler to impinge upon the gladhand receptacle, detecting, with a pressure sensor, back pressure of the delivered fluid reflected off the gladhand receptacle, determine a location of a pneumatic port of the gladhand receptacle based at least in part on one of a detected threshold pressure, detected pressure differential or detected pressure change of the back pressure to enable alignment of the pneumatic port of the gladhand coupler relative to the pneumatic port of the gladhand receptacle and coupling the gladhand coupler to the gladhand receptacle.
