Sensor Lowering Problems

[The_purple_lincoln_slayer]

My front bags leak so the back of my car is way in the air. So i was going to sensor lower the back to level it out. I did, but nothing happend. It never settled or vented. Why is it still way in the air?

Does the compressor just run until the "CHECK AIR RIDE" alert comes on screen?
It's probably timing out before the car has a chance to vent.

If one thing goes wrong on the Air Ride, it tends to screw everything else up.

Idk. the front bag fills and the rear bag stays super high now rather than venting to normal hight.

Your high sensor in the back could be screwed up.

It sounds like a stuck vent valve to me. The fronts are venting because they leak, and there is more weight in the front.

I had that problem with my green Mark. I put a spider valve in it and that fixed the problem.

Then I replaced my leaky front airsprings.

Try this....disconnect the battery cable for roughly 60 seconds. Then put the terminal back on start the car up and that might fix it. If that did not, try jackin up the car with the switch in the trunk on....so the vents open up. There is a 'safety' condition with the suspension that once it reaches an over inflation condition it will not open the vent valves if it thinks it will pump the bags back up.

Try that and see what happens.

Ok i just tried both and nothing happend. Its still super high up.

Did you move the sensors in the right direction?? Maybe you sensor raised it.
