There are 3 things that have to happen before the system will vent:

  1. Left air spring solenoid must activate
  2. Right air spring solenoid must activate
  3. Vent solenoid at compressor must activate
If the springs are inflated, the spring solenoids are probably fine, but not the vent solenoid. The vent solenoid is replaced with the Compressor.

Here are a couple of great Air Suspension refresh kits (including the Compressor, Solenoids, Bags, etc.) for your Crown Victoria:

In 1994 crown victoria, briefly heard a quick clicking sound. When this happened, the voltage went down also.

If it has air suspension. the air pump could be turning on. If it was idling slow, the A/C pump could reduce rpm if step-up circuit did not stabilize rpm. Lower rpm can mean lower voltage.

1992 CROWN VICTORIA LX I REPLACED FUSES INSIDE AND UNDER HOOD FOR AIR RIDE SUSPENSION AND IT STILL WON'T AIR UP. PLEASE HELP

Air ride suspension basically works like this. you have a small air compressor and a sensor that connects between the rear axle and the under body Frame. When this sensor detects a load movement like more or less weight it turns on the air compressor to air up or opens a exhaust valve to let air out. most common problems with this system. broken or disconnected sensor. leak in the air lines between compressor and shocks. or a bad or weak compressor.

1998 crown vic air suspension compressor does not pump.

Sounds like the problem is in the air bag suspension, not the compressor. The air bags shouldn't be losing air when the car sits. The compressor adjusts the suspension level according to the load. The air bags have a valve similar to a blow up raft that allows air to pass through both ways. If when the car is running the compressor is constantly running and not turning off, the issue is within the air bags and/or the air line.

How does one reconnect the air suspension

You probably have a leak in the system. Did "they" check the lines and air suspension? "They" probably disconnected the compressor to keep it from burning out from overuse. You need to fix the leak before reconnecting or the compressor will wear out very quickly.

2004 Ford Crown Victoria no air flow through main air vents

Chances are the electronic/digital HVAC control unit is bad. This same problem happened to me and I had to replace the entire unit. The dealer wanted to charge $800 for just the part! After I freaked out on them, they found a used one for less than half. Sorry, but there's no easy fix here.
