I disconnected the battery to reset the systems but it had no effect. The compressor still works on start up but then the lls shuts down while driving and the check susp light comes on.

i had the same problem on my 97 EB 4x4. check the relay, it's in the right wheel well almost behind the headlight. I unplugged mine, cleaned it and put some electronic grease. check suspension light no longer lights up.

I found the relay, cleaned it with contact cleaner, and reinstalled it, but the problem still exists.

Prob a new solenoid - check with the master of air rides - Eddie at American air.Lincoln Air Suspension Parts for 1984 - 2002 automobiles he has helped with my Mark VIII which has almost the same system as the Navi. His wealth of knowledge is fantastic, as is his service and parts. He knows these systems better than most any dealer!
