I have a problem with my air suspension. Once we got done working on my car. I turned the switch back on to lift the car up. When I was looking at it, it was really low. After we tried everything I also noticed the air suspension light on but no check engine light on. I'm like that's odd. So what do I do first or start with cause I do not want this to turn into a money pit. Any advice will help.

Did you lift the vehicle when the suspension was still turned on? Have you checked fuses?

Yes I Checked the 2 fuses under the hood and the one in the car. I always turned the switch off before we jack it up. Now I'm just woundering how to test the compressor or locate the ride height sensor. Any information to take the next few steps into solve the problem will help. Thanks again.

Here is a layout of the system. I found it on the net. Let me know if it helps. NOTE: Check to make sure the height sensor is getting power and functioning.
