Guys or girls.. does anyone have a faultmate in chesterfield or nearby that could help out. I've changed the compressor like for like but still getting the boing when raising. Suspect one of the corner sensors??

Is it a new compressor you have fitted?
How long does it run before you get the bong? It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.

Yes. New compressor fitted. Runs only for a few seconds then the usual fart... Then warning doesn't come up when normal driving usually. When I try to raise or lower it beeps and says normal height only?. Any help appreciated.

Any advice would really be appreciated. If I put it into access height it stops and like wise if I put it into off road height it has the same result. Any idea guys? Height sensor?

I'm in Tideswell and have a iCarSoft that will read all the codes if that helps...
I suspect it's not a height sensor as from my experience when they go you get red light and drops to bump stops.
normal height only is possibly due to leak, dodgy reservoir valve, leaking air reservoir...but not sure as I'm currently living with normal height only as a more or less permanent situation because, so far, I haven't found the root of the problem
I've taken out the compressor and serviced it, no!
I've replaced the air reservoir, no!
I've removed and cleaned the reservoir valve, no!
So still searching...one thing I haven't done yet is try a new compressor as I don't want to spend and then find it's not that that's the problem.
Which compressor do you have? Hitachi or AMK?
Cheers
Adri

Thanks Adri. It's a replacement Hitachi compressor so didn't need a software update. Would really appreciate your offer of a plug in to try and determine a possible cause?? Beer tokens 😁?

I'll happily read the codes for free if you can get to Tideswell.

That's fine Jason.
I work in a workshop next to the house so I'm here most of the day.
I'll PM you my mobile and you can call me when you get chance.
