Weak compressor? Fills rear bags first

pwood999 · Oct 8, 2017

If the system is low on air, then once the rear bags inflate, the compressor should kick in. If the pump is feeding a leak, it probably will not get enough pressure in the tank ti inflate all four corners.

Get the tank full first. Let it fill the rear as this is working. Next open drivers door to disable auto-leveling. Then try raising the front manually with EAS-Unlock or Nanocom. Open the two front corner valves first, and then open the Inlet valve.

Ok did what you said, let the back go up first open the door, the front did go up very slow, the wifes gone out to drive it around, I cant find my EAS unlock software right now, I will have a hunt for it, and try to set it up

The switch (on the dash) will give a solid (mid ride height ((false reading)) when I press it, it when sets itself (flashing as it should) and filling with air

Dopey · Oct 8, 2017

Spurious faults, don't think you have a proper connection to ECU

Dopey · Oct 8, 2017

What my leads to the laptop you mean?

Dopey · Oct 8, 2017

You clear faults with pressing the UNLOCK EAS right?

SpanishTony · Oct 8, 2017

I would unplug from OBD port then plug in again, think you should be getting the FF readings in both columns to confirm good connection

Seriously never mind had enough of it, thanks for the help though, sticking it on ebay

dont give up yet mate, it may be just a bad connection as stated on your lead , have you tried plugging the lead into another port on your pc?

EASunlock is not connected to the ECU. You need green good idle before you can do anything.

Dopey · Oct 8, 2017

I got good idle, and now its telling me the EAS is locked working and its 15mph, didnt show no faults

SpanishTony · Oct 8, 2017

Follow Wammers EAS guide in the technical section. Air leak in front bags?
