Before I get flamed I have done a search but nothing that relates to the fault I seem to have. :0)

She is on her bump stop, very lively ride home yesterday.
Stopped tried to adjust height, light for desired height flashes but no movement.
I checked and cleaned the exhaust filter. Stripped down compressor, all working ok.
There is no EAS fault showing in the display. The orange arrow with the car above indicator is lit.

Any help and advice greatly appreciated, thank you

Do the checks in Wammers How To at the top of this page. either the compressor is making no pressure or there is a leak. Split airbag or diaphragm in the valve block
Airbags have a design life of 7/8 years 80K miles.

Thank you for the replies. I took the hose off of the compressor, that is def pumping hard

Enought to blow your finger off the end?
Remove the EAS exhaust filter (towrds the rear of the pipes), is there air leaking out? If not suspect a split or perished airbag, spray with soapy water and look for bubbles.

Classic case of no air. Check my "How to".
 
For what its worth if you drove a while on bump stops check the battery area for acid spillage if non then great but if there is neutralise it quick also front os pipe runs nicely under there amd melt with battery acid - I know this as have the t shirt :)

Any half decent modern battery should be sealed:)

Good point must admit at the time was a bit confused as to why the pipe was corroded under the battery tray and just put it down to the battery fluid spillage :confused:- so not sure what happened and it hasnt happened since and quite right this was the battery in it when I got it and was changed pretty quick but not quick enough as white deposit all over battery tray anyway sorted now and sorryif I misled anyone with my poor chemistry :eek:
