It could be a couple of things. Depending on the weather I get the fault when there is nothing wrong. The dipping bag could be the issue but if there is a leak then the compressor overheats and then it goes into fault mode and drops to the bump stops.

I would try to go start it and see if the fault goes away, then come back and tell what you got.

I would check the bags and the valve block for air leaks first. The compressors wear out as well causing a long fill rate to the tank, which means the back will raise first then the front, also the eas codes usually don't clear themselves you have to clear them with a scan tool.

It could have just given you the fault, that is one of the things you need to deal with from a P38. Keep the RSW program and the cable, you never know when you may need it.

What fault codes do you have...it may be a software issue, a hight sensor issue or valveblock....

I think it is a sensor issue. Like I said before it is probably weather related. If the vehicle is not dropping tot he bump stops then it not really going into fault mode even though it says it is. Maybe try to unhook the EAS computer harness and then clean it out with air and see what it does after you hook it back up. It is under the drivers seat if you are not sure where to look.

Hey guys, Thanks for all the help.

So I had a spare block and compressor. I changed them both and its still the same problem. The problem always happens on the freeway. I drive about 5 or 6 miles and it starts blinking after changing the highway settings and problem begins. The same thing happened 3 times.
