P38 Disconnecting airlines from EAS valve block

1998 P38 on its back legs. No suspension. EAS fault on warning display, and down on bumpstops. Suspect pressure switch U/S. I am going to have to take out the EAS valve block and either replace or refurb. How are the airlines secured in the block and how difficult is it to disconnect them safely and without damage? Any advice gratefully appreciated. thanks

Hi,
Fairly simple, just push the outer ring around the pipe down with a largeish scredriver, push pipe in and while pushing the ring slide out pipe.

Why are you immediately suspecting the pressure switch?? Have you had it hooked up to the computer to see what faults exist??

As above to remove airline, just be careful incase any air is left in the tank when you disconnect the lines. The tank line has a purple sticker on it. Push the collet in being careful not to damage the airline and slide the airline out.

I guess you know if you are in hard fault you will need to have someway to reset the fault, either with one of the free programs on the internet, making your own cable along the way OR using a Rovacom/Testbook/Autologic etc.

I had a problem with my P38 on Tuesday, came out of work and the EAS wouldn't inflate car to normal ride height. The orange light was on the bottom position but the normal, and motorway heights would flash when the system was trying to put car into relevant position on the motorway EAS warning and 35mph message came on took car to GEMM in Larbert the swapped out compressor, valve block ect for trial and error. Its the airline to the tank that was fooked. Cost me £250 including new middle exhaust section and a weld to downpipe.
