I turned off my air ride jacked up the rear to put on jackstands.I had the shock mount changed & rotated the tires,My question is the compressor kick on and my front end was going up after an hour while working on the car.
IS THIS NORMAL?

If you turnes off the air ride switch in the trunk, then the air compressor should not kick on.

I did turn it off could it be a bad switch.

Switch t/off the power so either bad switch or maybe you turned it on?

I have had my 98 on the jack for a couple of hours never heard the comp kick on. Did anything get hurt?

Well I Found The Problem Somebody Ended Up Putting A Jumper Wire On The Plug That Supposed To Be On The Air Ride Switch.I removed the wire put the plug in back of the switch and the message center states it works fine ON/OFF. Does anybody know why that jumper wire was there?Could it be foul play maybe or probably it came from the factory i doubt it.

thanks
