Unless its been feeding a leak ,it may need resealing.

Yip, that's a good comprehensive kit. It takes a while and patience to get it done correctly. One solenoid at a time and carefully does it.
@kurtjohnson10 does new NRV valves also.

Its a good kit, if you do it right, though if the solenoid bases are hardened then new o-rings will not make any real differenceYip, that's a good comprehensive kit. It takes a while and patience to get it done correctly. One senoid at a time and carefully does it.

It's only three bolts and pop the lines out.

Rebuild the entire block.
If one valve is tired, the others wont be far behind.
I personally would go for Kurt to rebuild it cos then that is it ruled out
Then if still faulty then suspect leaking air line
Would be worth doing the checks you have been advised many times

Bollox.
Pumps fail with time but usually after feeding a leak. Valve blocks do get issues but rare compared to bags or airlines melted by exhaust blow. Driver packs have been known to fail but usually the pins on the connector, the connector behind the passenger kick panel or a height sensor with a dirty track, especially if the wheels have been hanging.
Process of elimination now.

And yes a small leak will let air bags down but it would take a major leak to stop it going up in the first place.
My guess is either a knackered pump or a blown exhaust melted the main line to the tank

Yes, so going to buy a working complete unit from fleabay,(with 30 day warranty) and then have mine rebuilt (retired engineer father is looking forward to doing this after he watched youtube videos) using rebuild kit. I'm going to reinstall my original after its done. I will keep other as spare and look to refurb at a future date.
will also be buying another pump, and advised to either replace or refurb air dryer.
Will keep you all updated.

Valve block? PM Kurt and see what he has at what price. He had a spare driver pack last I heard too.
