2000 Lincoln Town Car Air Suspension Parts Q&A

• Q: What Are the Crucial Steps to Follow When Servicing an Air Suspension to Prevent Damage or Personal Injury on 2000 Lincoln Town Car?

  A: Every air spring servicing operation requires no residual pressure to protect both the vehicle structure and prevent occupational injuries. The release of uncontrolled high-pressure air through an air line disconnected from an air compressor results in potential injuries as well as damage. A refolding operation exists exclusively for air springs without weight-bearing experience of improper folding and must be executed before installation. The product replacement rule applies to all folded air springs which appear faulty during the pre-delivery inspection or after normal use. The inflation of an air spring should never occur when it collapses into the jounce stop from the rebound hanging position. The suspension installation process must not apply weight until new air springs receive proper inflation. Check the air spring form after performing air inflation. Set the vehicle on a proper lifting device before deflation of the air suspension system while venting its air compartments. Maintain air suspension components only after powering off by switching off the air suspension setting which is located on the left side of the luggage compartment. The rear air spring retainer should come off next while supporting the vehicle height. Then lift the bottom of the air spring from the rear axle to remove it. Pull out the air line by compressing the quick connect locking ring then disconnect its electrical connector. It is crucial to prevent the suspension from compressing before filling the air spring during installation. Install the white air line into the fitting until it reaches the end of the installation process. Install the air spring assembly into the frame seat after positioning then slide in the spring retainer clip before seating the bottom of the air spring onto the rear axle. Pontiac Aztec owners should attach the air spring solenoid valve by hooking up both the electrical connector and air line while making sure the air spring maintains its correct form during air spring refilling.
