i have a check list for this 1 check your wires see if there is a bad one some were 2 run a jumper which you already did 3 check you level witch is one the passenger side on the rear axel it is about 4in long 4 check your relays see is one is brunt 5 check your main fuses the ones under the hood 6 check and see if the air ride in the back that aver thing is all right look on auto zone on the repair gide
Most air ride systems have a intial start up diagnostic program that will tell you there is a problem with your air ride system. Do you have any diagnostic errors kicking out? If you don't find the air ride on off switch and make sure it wasn't turned off by mistake. There is usually also a seperate fuse for the air ride systems (on my Lincolm VIII is is labeled RSS) which is close to the on off switch (my in on the drivers side rear quarter panel - trunk). That it if blows will totally skip the diagnostics on start up.
the fuse is it the right front relay/fuse box, 60 amps I think. Most likely the shocks leak, then the pump runs too much to keep them up, then the pump burns up and blows the fuse. There are companies that make a shock for the rear to delete the air ride, the air ride can cost a lot to get running again. shocks and compressor.
the first thing is the fuses. i've seen many of these that the rear air shocks are bad but customer doesnt know and the pump runs until it burns out,after checking the fuses start the car and listen under the hood for the pump to turn on, if pump turns on then check shocks for leaks, also you would have to make sure the pump is producing air as it runs and the last thing is the level sensor located under the rear of car.
To begin with, check the "ride level" fuse and make sure that the ride level compressor does work, and you should be able to hear that the ride level compressor is working when the ride level system is leveling the vehicle.
The ride level system uses an air compressor and either an air type of shocks or a type of air billow to raise and lower the vehicle, there is an adjustment to set the ride height and it is located under the vehicle and there is a control lever or rod that should be connected between the rear axle and a switch that is mounted on the body of the vehicle, and there will be an adjustment slot in the control lever between the switch and the body, and that is how you would adjust the ride level height, but be sure that the vehicle can not drop any further down if someone is under the vehicle trying to adjust the ride height.
However, you might find that the control lever to the ride level has fallen off from the switch on the body or it has come loose from the rear axle, and it is just hanging there not operating the switch on the body that controls the the ride level compressor, or there might be a blown out air shock or billow, or you might find that an air line from the compressor is leaking and the ride level compressor will just run continuously until it blows out the fuse, and if that is the case you might also find out that the air compressor has burned out from running continuously.
I hope that this information will help you to solve your ride level problem.
check fuses all fuses/ listen for compresser running /find the compressor and visually check plug ins for corrosion ford doesnt make it easy to diagnose youshould read about this thing a bit
Go to the diagnostic connector for the air suspension in the trunk and cut the DG/LG wire and tape it up. This should put it out but let me know if doesn't.
I would suggest a salvage yard and replace the bag I would also check the compresser and get a 12volt tester and test all the curcuits because if it burned out a fuse you may have an opened curcuit somewhere
Get From E-bay Ford 96 OEM Shop Service Manual, also EVTM manual [electrical/vacuum]
Locate Rotunda Part# in the manual For the Super Star 2 Tester; ie 007-00014-B
This will help you communicate/diagnose/troubleshoot/repair Air Ride Suspension,
There could be aprox 35 things causing your problem w/Lincolns, like if you have a door open fault,
air compress will not come on, not sensing car is going over 15mph, fuse, ground wire,height sensor[s][expensive], aprox $320.00 each, air ride ECM [$127.00].
Cheaper to get manual and Rotunda Tester off e-bay, 1st trip to dealer will pay for it.
I,am going through Air Ride Problem[s] right now on my 91 Linc, just purchased Rotunda
tool listed in my manual 007-00014-A $127.00, started off @ 12.50 last 10 sec's jumped up
Just waiting for tester to arrive.
