How often should the compressor run? by mnharleyguy

I bought a 2003 Navigator with 59,000 miles. Truck runs very well and rides well. I was wondering how often the compressor for the air suspension should run. It runs briefly when I first get in a start it up, also runs when I add a passenger. I suspect this is just the suspension adjusting to the varying loads. After I get rolling down the highway, I don't seem to hear it run at all. The truck rides nice, and it does not "bounce" like I have heard others describe. I have the extended on it, but don't want to run to the repair shop if it is not needed.
Thanks

I have no idea what it is supposed to do but from your description it would seem to be running perfectly.

Have you found out anything on this? We have a '00 Navigator that is doing exactly what you are experiencing. We've managed to stump the dealership, a factory rep, and my local mechanic.

I HAVE A 1999 LINCOLN NAV. AND THE AIR RIDE SYSTEM ONLY WORKS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. I WAS WONDERING IF THERE WAS A RELAY SOMEWHERE THAT WORKS EACH SIDE, BECAUSE I DONT SEE OR HEAR ANY LEAKS.

Replacing Air shocks by silvernavi

I have a 99 Navigator. I think its time to replace the front and rear shocks. Can I replace the front air shocks with regular shocks and replace the rear regular shocks leaving the air bags and air suspension intact? I replaced the air bags last year and I know that the rear has regular shocks and the air bags. When the time comes I will replace the air bags with coil springs, but not yet. If this is possible, would it be expensive to do?

My brother converted his '99 to coil overs. We had our local mechanic get the parts from Suncore.

Was it expensive in Labor? How does it ride and any problems? Did he do the front and rear? Thanks for the info.

Your relay might need to be replaced.
