If there is no difference in the ride height then you could have a leak which is under control. There is also an inertia switch next to the air suspension switch. Make sure you are using the correct button. When air bleeds out of a suspension bag things can get weird. There is a diagnostic plug which dealers have testers for. Autozone or Murrays may also have testers for this part.

The warning light is advising you of a fault in the rear air suspension system. Is the car sitting level ? The switch in the trunk is ONLY TURNED OFF when you incur a flat tire in the rear tires and must jack up the rear of the car. IF NOT TURNED OFF the air suspension will over-extend with air . Hope this helps.

What does it mean when raction light stays on and thabs light stays on and the traction wont come on on a 1998 lincoln signature series

Its most likely a bad ABS (anti-lock brake system) speed sensor. ABS pump or modulator assembly. When the light is on, your vehicle does not have the benefit of the ABS and traction control features.

My 1998 Lincoln Town Car Signature Series alternator was over charging I took the battery cable off while the car was running and the dashboard starting to smoke and none of my lights are working...

You'll probably need a shop manual to get all of the wiring diagrams.
It sounds like you fried several main wires in the harness.
The excessive voltage may have cooked the gauge cluster and fed back thru the headlight switch. The warning light on the dash provides the circuit to "turn on" the alternator when the engine starts.

I have a 1995 Town Car Signature Series. The rear

Sadly, there is no way to turn the light off. I had the air suspension on my Lincoln replaced with the spring kit, and the light is still on. I had a friend take the instrument panel apart and place a small piece of electrical tape over the "check suspension" light. Also, be certain to turn the air suspension pump switch off. It is located in the trunk on the right side.

Need to change air suspension compresor of 1998 Lincoln Town Car

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
