Default AARRRGGGHHH!!! Now I have a new air suspension problem
My wife just called and said that the car is stuck on level 1 and won't go any higher. It's leveling OK, and the compressor runs, but the car won't lift. I'll check the codes when she gets home.

Remove all belts, shoelaces, and sharp instruments from your home...that sucks. Sorry to hear it.

How cold is it? Mine doesn't always work in subzero weather. Warm car & restart.

It worked all morning, and failed while she was driving to work.

Default cant remember what year yours is, but 01's and 02's stay in 1 after 75 IIRC.
not that that matters with the parking lot trial. 03's and beyond have to be over 90 to stay in 1.

An '01 can be locked into level 1 and won't come off until almost 80 fwiw

Default '01, but after upgrading my computer, it always comes back to level 2 after slowing down
also the suspension warning light is on.

The light will be on that indicates that the level was set manually and locked.
