Description

Air bag suspensions system uses a system of inflatable air bags filled with compressed air to suspend the vehicle off the ground. Air Compressors provide air to the integral components of your vehicle’s air ride suspension, keeping air springs and air shocks inflated to a necessary height based on your carrying load, towing and passengers. A properly working air suspension will keep your vehicle’s ride a smoother, more enjoyable one, and help with vehicle stability, braking and fuel economy. The main reason a compressor fails is due to being overworked and burning out.Usually,when it is having a problem,a few symptoms will be produced that can alert driver of a potential issue that should be serviced:Vehicle riding lower than normal;Abnormal noises during operation such as excessively loud clicking, whining, or grinding;The compressor won’t come on. If you have these problems on your vehicle’s suspension, please inspect if the vehicle needs an air suspension compressor replacement. Turn ignition switch to the ON position. Release air pressure. Open vent valve and relieve all of the air pressure from air lines. After air lines have been depressurized, close the vent valve. Turn ignition switch to the OFF position. Disconnect air line from compressor dryer. The air line is attached to air compressor using a push-to-connect fitting. Disconnect electrical connector.Locate lock release tab on your connector. Depress the tab and pull the two halves of the connector apart. Remove compressor. Air compressors are held to the vehicle by bolts. Using the necessary size socket and ratchet, remove bracket bolts that secure air compressor to the vehicle, then remove air compressor and bracket assembly from the vehicle. Install air compressor and bracket assembly into the vehicle in reverse order. Warning: Vent all air pressure from air suspension system prior to disconnecting or removing any air suspension components. Failure to do so may result in serious personal injury. When air compressor being replaced, the matching relay must be replaced according to the corresponding vehicle. If there is something wrong with relay which leads compressor to continuous operation without any break,it will burn out electric motor or other plastic part.In severe cases, it can cause fire and cracking of dryer. When compressor being installed, the critical parts such as rubber shock pad and damping spring must be fully fixed on stand without short installation or missing installation (Air compressor is unequipped with parts).With anti-vibration parts of short installation or missing installation,a loud noisy instance will happen when compressor is working for the sake of resonance.Aging of rubber cushion will cause suspension failure and produce a metal collision sound. Distribution valve,shock absorber,air tank and tube connector must be checked after air compressor installed to ensure air-tightness.The lifespan of compressor will be shortened if the leakage exists.
