Suspension, what else?

Ok, my car is fully slammed, all four. When I turn it on, the compressor runs for a while then stops and gives me the "Check Air Suspesion" garbage that doesn't tell me anything.

This literally became a problem overnight about two weeks ago. I drove it home one night normally, the next day the car's air ride wouldn't move it up a millimeter. I took off the front passenger side tire and it looks like all the air lines are connected pretty solidly.

Any suggestions?

Solenoid on the compressor.

won't allow it to raise the car because it just vents through there before ever hitting the bags.

New compressor.

Sorry for the lack of information, I forgot to mention that I have the Spider Xtreme installed as well. It must have been the solonoid on the spider xtreme, because it worked for about 5-6 months no problems, then literally overnight (Chicago, very cold night) experienced the problem.

I rerouted the air lines back directly into the compressor assembly, and it worked! The car lifted off the ground... now to call Eddie from American Air to talk about the coil conversion.
