To this day your video is still helping people and kicks ass!

[@Clif-gj7kl]

I have an Expedition-1998. Rear pump went out. So I determined that soon the front would go out and cause me to spend more money. So I purchased a conversion kit to go with springs and shocks for the front and back. ($419 for the kit). Now the vehicle sits stronger and slightly higher, giving me a smooth ride and a peace of mind.

[@jackieknapp6474]

I APPRECIATE PEOPLE LIKE YOU who take the time to make these videos! You saved me money I didn't have and gave me quality time with my pop! God bless you:)

[@ajparr]

This video was a great starting point for fixing the same problem on my 2010 Navi. Thank you for taking the time to post it!

[@gravitationalwavemaker9521]

ajparr what was the problem with your 2010 navi? I got a 09 navi with same problems

[@ajparr]

The rear wheel wells were only about an inch above the tires and when driving it, any bumps at all caused long oscillating bouncing in the rear end. Good luck fixing your '09, but it should be fairly straightforward!

[@edgarromero131]

Where is the relay on your 2010 Navi? I have an 07 and i cant find that relay? Please help

[@Darkwardrums77]

Thank you, sir!! Had a "Check Susp" light on and the compressor wouldn't turn on.. Ended up being a loose plug into the relay.. Zip tied it up and we're good to go.. Thank you for your awesome and helpful videos!

[@donl3381]

Hi can you pls tell me where to find the plug to the relay that you zip tied?

[@robertmalone483]

Can you do a video on air tube routing, common fail points, how to locate and repair air leaks? I’ve got a 2003 Navigator to repair. PS: Great Job on your videos (a small laser light helps identify parts in tight places ….)

[@jaredpompa2816]

Question: First, thank you for the video. I have a 2010 navigator that the rear suspension drops intermittently. what are your thoughts on that. It will drop while driving, but then once the vehicle has been turned off then back on, it lifts and is good for a day or so. any advise is greatly apreciated.

[@richpeck-lippsplitter7213]

FordTechMakuloco- most informative media on the net! reattached the pigtail to relay and jumped the fat wires- both failed. logic and as you stated its the pump, direct power test and voila its alive however only front bags inflated. rear bags hold air. havent heard the pump run normally. thinking its the relay and pigtail? thanks again

[@drwombat]

Thank you for doing this video. Is this system the same on panther chassis with air suspension cv, p71, town car, etc? All info seems to be about the SUV models

[@rendelkirby4908]

[@bigbubba1384]

Do you have a expedition if you do I would look to ask you something do ford expeditions have the power to do a burnout

[@reidejensen4990]

Great Video! Thanks for posting! I have a 2008 Expedition. My problem is the rear will sag like you show in your video however when I start the car and go in reverse or drive it will start to pump its self back up. This is random, in other words it can maintain its normal height for a couple days and other time it will sag every day. Any suggestions? Thank You in advance for your reply.

[@froglobster]

THANK YOU! My 97 Continental wouldn’t lift...I went to my local wreckers and got the relay from another Cont 7.95 all good now! Ford was $365and Lordco was $182......read too many about conversions where the car ride feels like a truck ride now having coil springs no thanks. Also the Cont in the wreckers I got the compressor and height sensors and Arnott air bags- sweet ride now!

[@froglobster]

December now back end won’t lift after all the switch outs....☹️

[@matthewkee7727]

I have a 1998 Lincoln Navigator the compressor will not kick on but if i bypass it like you did in the video the compressor will work the second test you did with hooking a window motor up I also did that and that worked but the very last test did not work I could not get my test light to light up what would be the cause the test light is good. I checked first..

[@ericsmith6355]

I need help understanding what to use for the power when I jump my sensor fordtechmakuloco you don't show what your wired to for power in the video when you power (jump) up the compressor?

[@texas_hill_country_outdoor9532]

had this happen to me found out there was a o ring on the dryer that was going into the compressor was cracked, replaced it and now everything works great for the time being

[@ooohhhsnap9241]

Hello and thank you for your videos, quick question, I have replaced my bags and compressor (208k miles on original) however the compressor runs intermittently and drains the battery even while parked with no key, do you think this is a plating issue or do I have a very small leak somewhere?

[@ronbaynes2755]

I have both an 06 & 07 Navigator. Would the air suspension pump from the 06 fit the 07 if I needed to swap it out ? Thanks !

[@jujuey3balls979]

99 Navi with the rear low. Getting no ground from control module. Anything to check for other than just replacing the module? Thanks

[@tonyhern2647]

found some oem springs to swap out for the air spring. is it a direct swap. can I just change them out with out having to make a modification​

[@pringlecaleb]

We have this problem on our 1998 Navigator. Unplugging the pigtail and plugging it back in selectively kicks the compressor back in and pumps up the back end. Sometimes it works most times it doesn’t. I tested all circuits on the pigtail and they checkout. Is this just a relay problem or should I just replace both relay and pigtail?

[@johnespinoza4792]

I own a 2007 Expedition. Recently the rear air suspension loses air. A few days later there is a loud grinding noise in the engine compartment and some fluid leaking right near the front differential gear. I checked and replaced both the short shafts on front end and the transmission. Didn't check the air pump nor dryer. Could the pump be leaking the fluid as well? Front air suspension maintains it's pressure.

[@eluv9660]

I have 2000 navigator and have replaced both bags, compressor, relay and pigtail. only right rear does not raise up. Would it be the solenoid on that side?

[@MrTricksterRickster]

2010 Lincoln Navigator Air Ride Suspension Control Module Replacement: system has no air leaks, compressor comes on and brings vehicle up to correct ride height. however system then vents and currently is squatting at the rear. How involved is it to access the module?

[@cb6628]

I have a 2000 Limited AWD V8 5.0 -- The pump seems to work as it's coming on all the time, and you can see the back lifting... there doesn't seem like too much noticeable sag. How would I check for leaks? Would you recommend converting from air to gas to just bypass the system? As of recently driving my vehicle feels like I'm in a boat.

[@jimbored88]

I have a 2003 Navigator I think the air bag on the driver side back will not pump up but the other side pumps up do I only have to replace the side that is bad or do I have to replace the right and left bags.

[@aramos811]

I own a 2007 Lincoln Navigator Ultimate and my check air suspension light comes on now and then. Do you have any videos for that year and make to diagnose the issue?

[@jamesbrewster1964]

FordTechMakuloco, I have a '00 that I thought had sagging rears. I followed your steps and tested the connector, and the compressor kicked on. I don't have the proper equipment to test the two smaller wires, but I think the relay works because when I turn the truck off, I can hear clicking that sounds like the relay working. I started looking at the height sensors, it looks like the rear one is extended, but the funny thing is that the rear bags are full to the max. What do you think I should check next?

[@FordTechMakuloco]

James Brewster The relay does not click it is solid state and is likely your concern still.

[@DavidLee-wx1ku]

Is the WPT392 pigtail you listed the correct connector for a 1998 Lincoln Continental Air Suspension relay? I would think that all Ford connectors for this part are the same because the Amazon link you have listed says the pigtail won't fit a 1998 Continental.

[@amazingautoservice]

my suspension I can hear the motor come on but the ride stays dropped . it comes on for 20, 30 seconds but it never lifts. this happens after tow dolling a car went over a bump a little to fast and when I got to my destination it was low

[@dannyrivera3322]

[@bcbp14]

I jumped the compressor and it turns on but jumper wire gets very hot. I tested the other two wires with a multimeter and get about 12 volts. Compressor will still not automatically activate. Both height sensors look OK. What next? Forgot to mention. I disconnected the battery to clear the check suspension light and still no change. Edit: replaced relay with one from a junkyard and all is well. Also, I bought the truck a month ago and the rear is always riding at max height giving the truck a forward rake.

[@mattk4809]

So I did this and the last wire did not work, the control module ground wire... can I splice that and re ground it somewhere else or does it ground through the module? What's my options?

[@chadhill7253]

I have a 2000 Lincoln and its sagging in the back, the air compressor will not come on and we checked the leveling sensor in the back. What can it be cause its clicking but won't air up?

[@MCHNCTCH]

Hey FordTech. Great videos. I was wondering if you knew about when the compressor comes on to often. I have a Lincoln Navigator 01 that has the rear height sensor @2.4 volts and the front at about 3 volts. Both sensors seem ok when I move them up/down the scan tool voltage goes up/down. When the compressor comes on the front gate/fill solenoids come on usually. Is the the front height sensor voltage too high? If the car sits it doesn't drop after a couple hours

[@marinoperna]

what scanning software/hardware are you using? 2005 navigator but i cannot get any of my scanners to view voltage to each or any sensor

[@hakinme]

Thanks for the video. It was really easy to follow. I'm hoping you can help me. I have a 2000 Navigator and the back end is down. I did all of the troubleshooting you showed. Everything was good. I even saw the front end rise when I used a jumper wire on the pigtail for the relay. I replaced the relay but the compressor won't run. I used a scan tool (actron CP9135 OBDII Auto Scanner) and got a "pass" message. Any suggestions?

[@darlenecasper3557]

Thank you again. But I remain confused to your response. If I replaced just the relay, then a week later the sag happened again. I unplugged and replugged the new one and it worked. How do I know it is not going to sag again.....til I wait again. So your answer is to replace the pigtail also? And how is the pigtail replaced?

[@FordTechMakuloco]

+Darlene Casper Next time it happens where the rear is sagging and the pump is not coming on like usual disconnect and reconnect the relay pigtail, if it now comes to life and work you know you need to replace the pigtail.

[@CENTURl0N24]

We jumped the 2 wires on the pig tale and the pump came on but the car did not go up. With out jumping the lines, the pump does not come on. I replaced the relay and no change. 2 questions: Should the car go have gone up when we jumped the lines? What do I check next?

[@FordTechMakuloco]

+CENTURION24 The system is faulted therefore the module would never turn on the rear air spring solenoids to fill. You jumped the two wires but did you check all the other inputs?

[@juliodelossantos451]

I don't get a ground reading when checking the controller. How would I fix that?

[@darlenecasper3557]

I have a 2000 Expedition the relay and springs were replaced 4 years ago by ford service. I did the test you suggested by disconnect and reconnect and the compressor worked. Thank you for this video. I replaced just the relay only but then the sag happened again. So does that mean the pigtail needs to be replaced like you mentioned? How is this pigtail replaced?

[@FordTechMakuloco]

+Darlene Casper Most likely yes it does easy test is to unplug and plug it back in and retest if it work now you know.

[@ginamaco7193]

+FordTechMakuloco... I have a 2003 Navigator and all 4 bags are down. I replaced the right front blown airbag.The compressor is activating and air is coming through the lines to all the bags. I can hear all 4 air bag solenoids clicking on but it still isn't raising. Any ideas of what else it could be? I figured that changing the bags on the front as well as the o-rings on the back would have fixed the problem. still nothing. Any ideas?

[@lookingupwards8652]

How about cleaning the contacts on the Connectors and putting dialectic grease on them if they’re not too bad that should work

[@omardeleon867]

I recently bought a 2000 lincoln navigator, so I'm pretty much unused to the air ride system and its problems. A few days ago the rear bags just stayed low, I didn't notice the air pump/compressor functioning before but everything was ok, 1st question, when is the air compressor supposed to turn on? at the very first moment you turn on the ignition? Because the only time I can listen to the compressor work (I think) is when truck is on Drive, but still air springs are not being inflated, so it is pretty difficult to check for leaks on 'em.

[@FordTechMakuloco]

Ok so it sat for awhile maybe overnight and you went to drive the truck and the back end was to the ground as in the video? Does it ever pump back up? If are really low they should pump back up with truck idling in park. Other wise they wont start to adjust till you put it in drive. Does the air compressor at least run when in drive but maybe not pump up the rear? Have you check the rear linkage for the height sensor they like to pop off on those models. I shown and example of the sensor at the end of the video.

[@davidchampion7927]

2007 Expedition EL- Recently failed to toggle off the Air Suspension when towing a trailer and later when using a Hitch Rack (heavily loaded)...I get an error every time when the car starts that the Air Suspension is OFF, It does not give me the option on the Message Center to toggle it back to ON..Any thought?

Great video. My 1998 Lincoln Navigator Air Suspension quit working and the idiot light is on constantly on the instrument panel. All bags are deflated. I did all the checks mentioned. The compressor works fine when I jump across the two huge wires, and the middle ground wire all checked out perfectly. I even replaced the relay even though it was not bad. My problem is I get nothing on the 4th wire (Control Module). I did it exactly as mentioned in the video and still nothing works. Where is the control module locate on my 1998 Navigator? How difficult is it to diagnose and to replace? I have a pretty good mechanics background, but have not be able to locate the module; I think its under the dash somewhere. Oh, by the way, the air suspension on/off switch checks out good too. What else can it be. Chiltons and Haynes are clueless. Thanks, MikeyD

[@FordTechMakuloco]

The control module is located right above the radio, you just have to pull the trim panel off. There are many reasons the module may not be commanding the compressor on. You can check the wire from the module to the relay and after that you will need a scan tool to check height sensor voltage park input etc.

[@fordinator]

Great video. Question, ii have a 99 navigator here. The pump runs when jumped the middle small wire works as ground. The end little wire doesn't ground. Cold this be bad connection or would this mean a larger problem.

[@FordTechMakuloco]

Is the rear height sensor and linkage connected up and not fallen off? If so I would have it looked at with a scan tool so they can check the height sensor voltages etc to see why it is not commanding it on.

[@fordinator]

FordTechMakuloco currently both sensors are hooked up and appear to work.

Hello, I have a 1999 Continental with Air Suspension in the rear only. The rear is flat on both sides and the pump will not turn on. I thought it was the ride height sensor so I replaced with no fix. I ran the tests on the plug in this video assuming it was pretty similar to the Expedition and all of them passed except the last one. Another thing I noticed is when I jump the hot to the ground and let the pump run for 3 minutes it would not lift the car. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

[@FordTechMakuloco]

+MaxDiff328 In general since the module found a fault in controlling the solid state relay it is not commanding the pump on so it never opens the rear solenoids. I do it manually with the scan tool. What you can do is fake a connection on the low current ground control from the module at the relay this way it powers the test light and thinks everything is ok then it will open the rear solenoids and then you jumper the relay pigtail as before to get the pump to come on and watch it rise.

[@chuycastro2259]

MaxDiff328 ni mi

[@adventureswithducky4088]

So question for you on this system. The pump on my vehicle works ('97 Expedition). Previous owner cut the wires at the relay so connector is junk. Would it be possible to use some sort of solenoid to effectively replace this relay? I'm thinking something like the starter solenoid from a Japanese motorcycle that has to be externally grounded to activate.............. Just a thought. I might try it, if it doesn't work I'll just get F150 coil springs .......................

[@alemoreno5030]

my compressor turns on but the suspension does not lift what can it be there is air in the suspension no holes either

[@Wu-TangLAN]

**i don't have a ride height problem ** i purchased a 02 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer 4x4: back in April 2016. the previous owner stated he had replaced the air ride compressor recently. He told me about an issue where the compressor will intermittently stop coming on (anywhere from 15-45 minutes of driving) and the check suspension light will illuminate on the dash.when that happens he said: turn off the truck and wiggle the air ride compressor relay and turn the truck back on which works but i can't keep stopping on a long trip every 30 minutes to wiggle the relay. what does this sound like to you

[@travisjohnson8078]

is the relay fused? would it be necessary to locate the fuse for the compressor beforehand, and replace it if needed before running any tests?

[@FordTechMakuloco]

+TRAVIS JOHNSON Yes but it is 60 Amp fuse so almost never blows until the compressor is totally seized. That first big wire will tell you if its blown all while checking the rest of the system all from the same place.
