All the 'How Tos' are now in the Technical Archive at the top of the Forum page - unfortunately it's not very prominent.

Nanocom says raise and lower, so I am thinking it must be inlet and exhaust

Have you cleared faults? Go through the how to. Check you have good air, just air coming from compressor is not enough. There must be good pressure. Check the diaphragm valve is not leaking when compressor is running. Car is raised and lowered by opening solenoid valves on valve block. Same valves are used to raise or lower car. Raise will open inlet and then rear solenoids then close rears and open fronts. Then rears then fronts to level then close inlet. Exhaust valve only opens when car is being lowered. If you have no air pressure it doesn't matter what valve is open nothing will happen. You MUST have good air pressure first.
 
Yes thanks, I appreciate that, I have ordered compressor and valve block repair kits, so its not worth chasing my tail until the parts have arrived, I shall o/haul compressor first then take it from there.

Before you remove any solenoid coils mark them and make sure they go back in the same place. ;)
 
Hi, parts arrived today, so i did compressor rebuild,existing piston seal was all but worn away. Quite a simple job really. I will wait until the better weather and then do the valve block. thanks for your help all.
