1992 Lincoln Mark VII Suspension & Tire Change

Compressor may be bad.

There can be several reasons. The system will not activate unless all the door switches and the trunk switch indicate everything is closed. There are some fuses and Relays for the pump motor that can be checked. There is a cutoff switch in the trunk which is shut off for tire service and other things requiring lifting the vehicle.

Some of the better scanners can check the Air-lift system systems. You can call Autozone, Advance, or Oreilys to see if they have the better scanner to do this. Usually free at these brands.

It could be your compressor. You can check this by popping it out and putting a 12 volt source on it.

Check the air lines for leaks especially around the right rear tire area. chances are the flat tire severed or pulled loose one of the lines from compressor

CHECK AIR SPRINGS SOLENOID O- RINGS FOR LEAKS.LISTEN FOR AIR LEAKS AROUND EACH AIR SPRING. WHILE CAR ON GROUND. IF YOU SPOT A LEAK.TURN OFF AIR SUSPENSION OFF FIRST.THEN SAFELY RAISE VECHICLE.REPLACE ALL AIR SPRINGS SOLENOID O - RINGS BUT FIRST BLEED AIR OUT OF AIR SPRINGS FIRST BY REMOVING AIR SPRING SOLENOID CLIP THEN SLOWLY PULL AIR SPRING SOLENOID TO SECOND STOP DONT PULL ALL THE WAY OUT.TO SAFELY LOCK OUT VECHICLE REMOVE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE TO KEEP AIR COMPRESSOR FROM TURNING ON.YOU DONT WANT AIR IN SPRINGS WITH VECHICLE IN THE AIR.

they run under the body then out to each wheel and airbag.

The air suspension compressor is located on the passenger side of the car in front of the tire. To get to it, you must first lift the front tires off of the ground, remove the front passenger tire, and then remove the plastic skirt found behind the tire. After this is done it is easy to see the compressor which is found towards the front of the car, mounted just behind the skirt. I hope this helps

The compressor is next to the air box on the driver side under a plastic cover. One plug, two hoses and 3 bolts that hold it down. The hose on the top of the compressor is a quick release. Push in hose and hold red ring at bottom, and it should pull right out

It is a faulty sensor. It is the black cyclinder with a boot on it that attaches to the back side of the lower control arm (look next to the brakes) Replace that and you will be golden. It might have water or a "dead" spot in the sensing coil
