Air suspension questions
New member here with an '05 H2 SUT with STS Turbo which has had it's own issues. My air suspension is low on the drivers side, checked the dash control button but don't here the compressor or see any changes, fuse appears OK. Watched the Facebook tutorial about the air bags which was helpful. Need further help on diagnosis to identify if the compressor is ok or just the air bags.

Re: Air suspension questions
You'll need to get ahold of a TECH 2 and go a complete function test of the air suspension. Two possible problems you might have are:
1. The rod attaching the suspension to the sensor may be out of position giving a false reading and thus causing the suspension to be low on that side.
2. The sensor itself could be defective, however this would cause a service suspension light.
3. There is a third possible but unlikely situation. You could have a collasped line restricting the flow of air to the bag or the orifice could be blocked, Since you have a turbo, they may have passed the inlet pipe over the frame near the left rear airbag and pinced the line. It would be rare but not impossible!
Hope this helps!
