I have recently replaced the front units and now the car seems to sit quite low. I have no errors up. I also realise that my cd does not any information (circuits or otherwise) on air suspension. I have managed to find where the fuse is and I plan to check it tonight. I have done a reset. Can anyone tell me where I can get information and possibly circuit diagram on the air suspension system.

The pump is not running. I tried to find the fuse however the cover of the inside fuse panel showed a row of seven fuses and there were only six on the actual fuse panel. There were two fuses floating near the fuse panel which were both OK. I imagine there is a relay somewhere so that I can check if the controller is calling for the compressor. I was thinking of checking the compressor. However I have to sych myself up to pull the inner guard off etc. I have tried switching from normal to high and turning the isolation switch in the boot on and off.

Thanks Tom, I managed to get hold of a circuit diagram and there appears to be a fuse in a location called FL Cassette block. This fuse supplies a + to the compressor. I may be able to get a air suspension ECU to try. The other option is to prove the compressor by disconnecting the plug to the controller and applying DC to the motor. I will keep you posted.

The compressor is dead. I have sourced another locally and just hope that is all that is wrong.

Repaired and replaced the compressor and all is working. The weather sealing on the top end of the compressor seems to be a bit ordinary. With mine the brushes in the motor were sticking due to corrosion
