Wierd susp. problem

I just bought a second mark for real cheap. Its been sitting awhile but supposedly not to long (who knows), It starts and runhs, but its sitting on the ground. The pump never comes on but I get no air suspension error message either. If I turn off the switch and start the car, the MC says"air switch off" as it should. Im confused why it would be able to see that, but not an error like the system never starting? Does anyone know a way to raise the car manually?

flip the switch in the trunk it's off and hasn't been on for a long while and has settled

no, the switch works because if I turn it off, the M/C knows.

On my car the problem was the ABS/compressor relay.

and you had the same symptoms?

Well how many miles are on the car? Are the bags bad? Mine said check Air Ride System, Id have to see it to figure it out. The Relay or compressor is my first guess, dont know why the warning wont come on though, thats kinda weird.
