Default I tried numerous things to disable it, but all seem to throw a Suspension warning light

Currently I have the lines plugged and it is otherwise enabled. It isn't the best solution by any means, but I have yet to come up with something better.

Thanks for the response. I'm still experiencing some issues as well.

How do you currently have it set up?

Default The ECU thinks the vehicle is on suspension level 1. Somedays, I get the suspension

warning light. However, sometimes, the indicator warning disappears after driving a few miles. Othertimes, cycling a power turns off the light. It's kind of weird. I assume that bumps/undulations in the road compress the suspension, triggering the air compressor and, as a result, a warning light when there is no adjustment in height.

Haven't plugged the air lines since it doesn't appear to matter.

Do you get hissing from the open lines?
