Air Suspension: Jack Mode Light on all the time

I am having the issue with the jack mode light on and greyed out settings....Did anyone ever figure out the issue?? I read on other forums it is more than likely the relay which caused the 40 amp fuse to blow? I'm hoping it's not the compressor!

Vag Codes: 01777 - Level Control Accumulator Valve (N311) 009 - Open/short to ground
and 01772 - Signal from level control pressure sensor (G291) 008 - Implausible Signal

Any part number for the relay and schematics of the location?

THANKS in advance for any help!

Well..... mine kicked on too but after about 30 seCONds, the wire (10 gauge) got so hot the insulation started to smoke. Motor was bad, one of the magnets broke free from the motor shell causing drag and excess current draw. I now have a spare for the next time it fails.

Where is a good place to find replacement struts as well as the compressor? Just for future info.

If the motor kicks on and then faults shouldn't the code clear until the motor actually kicks on? I have no suspension limping issues. I also noticed when driving on the highway it will go into dynamic mode (low clearance green light comes on)?? Must be a sensor or something I am guessing??
