what have you sprayed it with??.yes you can try the airline.but it might not get inside the switch.it could be other things as well,but that switch is a common problem.

ok,never heard of that product,is it the same as wd40,if so it wont work as a releasing agent.try another release agent for that.wd40 is great as a water dispersant and sealer against water ingress.

Ok I'll have to get some cans of wd40 then what if I shrink wraped all my plugs after I'm dun spaying n working on the electrical system would that be ok to prevent future problems
 
Ok yeah I DONT know what the ACE system was I was thinking your saying the air bag in the pre springs before I replaced em with new ones

ok.lets get this in order hey.the airbags are the suspension and you have replaced them.ok.but the ACE means it is ACTIVE CORNERING ENHANCEMENT,ie it stops body roll when cornering.under the bonnet(hood),the reservoir that you put the power steering fluid in,has it got one or two black caps on it??

One black cap .. I'm going to see if I can get it added next year though cuz of the 4 more inches I'm adding to it .. Lol 2" body lift n 2" spring lift :)

water/dampness will get in anywhere.personally i would not shrink wrap them as you will get condensation in there,or will hold water if they get wet.just use wd40 everytime you go off road.plus with it being a petrol engine you will have more probs than a diesel engine as they can go under water with a snorkel fitted.:D

ok,one cap means no ACE,even less to go wrong.do not have it added,tis expensive and no use really,fit stronger springs if you need more control.;).or adjustable shockers.
