2007 dispatch suspension.

Post by leighton.haynes »

hello all.
Ive got a problem with my pneumatic suspension stuck in the air.
i need to reset the system but where do i release the air out the system?
i had a faulty sensor but have changed this and just needs a reset.

Thanks in advance!

If you had lexia, you could depressurise the system, however if not , u will need to take a pipe out of a unit.
The van must be safe first, i.e. you not under it unsupported. There is a drinking straw sized pipe going to each airbag, where it enters the airbag is a little collar, push the pipe in first, and then push on the collar with a screw driver, the pipe will now pull out easily with a load of air coming out.
Once it is flat, you can push the pipe back in and start the vehicle, it will rise up again.
When it all breaks, give me a shout and I can sell you a conversion kit to put ordinary springs on :)

The problem you have is not one I have encountered , so not sure. The compressors are about £700, which is a lot of money in anyone's book. A conversion set about £150 ish + vat . :)

Ok, you may find this useful, we had one in this morning, and this is the rear height sensor. I suspect your problem lies with this, may be just that the link has fell off or got bent. This car is a C4 Picasso, but the same as your van . We have just converted this one to coil springs. The Air bags are currently on back order.
