Air surspension stopped working... and dont say "I told
ScrumpyJack:
Thanks lads,
hopefully get enough time to check a few things this weekend, I have noticed the rear offside ride hight sensor is broken and has been cable tied in place ( nice ) :shock:
andy might take you up on the rovacom, time permitting, where in barkshire are you.
Jonny Boaterboy:
ok...... what's a "Rovacom Lite"? did someone say you could tincker with the ride hights! would it be possiable to increase the high profile hight even more and if so does that interfear with the exstended profile ride hight? ummm sounds like I could increase my off roading ability.... can I?
well after the garage boys had had a look at my air surspension they concluded that there was nothing wrong! And after driving around for a while the proplem seems to be that the compressor is geting old! I will see how it goes over the next few weeks.
Hey there ScrumpyJack no problem with the high jacking good to hear more talking abot the air! sorry to hear you have a problem I can offer no help at all apart from when you do drop down to acces mode to carry out the surgested tests rather than leave the door open of ride the break peddel just flick the rocker switch under the driver seat. This will turn off the air surspension. If the problem still arises the it is nothing to do with the EAS.
Bush Tucker Man:
Isn't the system linked into the interior light switches as well?, in order ascertain that it ought to be in 'Access Mode Height'?
Jonny Boaterboy:
Well....... just got back from trying to go to a car boot sale in the Range Rover. As normal (at the moment) the surspention did not rise at all then after about 5 mins started to rise a little. The high profile light on the dash then started flashing in conjunction with the high and low profile lights on the switches. They then stayed on and the Range droped back down onto the bumpstops!
Now I'm guesing that the EAS ECU has decided that there is something wrong with the compressor, panicked, and droped it on to the bump stops. I am now going to put anther air compressor on that I got of e-bay (hopefully it will work ok)
It says that you need to depresurise the system to do this.... so my plan is to take the drain bung out of the tank, it is allready on the bump stops so should that be enogh?
Once I have put the new compressor on there, will it reset its self and start working or will I have to get it reset by pluging into the laptop again at the local land rover garage?
uhummmm I feel that the end is in sight!
Thanks Jonny
Jonny Boaterboy:
Is there anyway I can test the compessor befor I put it on?
And does anyone know if you can get a rebuild kit for the compresser and if so will it put it back to "good as new status"?
