    97 cont air compressor working?

    your compressor relay is burned out,this is caused by leaks in the bags.if you just replace the relay with out fixing the bags it will burn out again.the 97's had rear air springs only,200,00 from arnotte.very easy to replace.a very very few 97's had full air ride,but it had to be special ordered.
