2003 Lincoln Town Car Air Suspension Compressor Parts Questions & Experts Answers

• Q: What steps should be taken before servicing the air suspension compressor to ensure safety and proper procedure on 2003 Lincoln Town Car?

  A: See Note X before starting your work on the air suspension compressor because turning off power to the air suspension system blocks unexpected air spring inflation or deflation thus preventing vehicle shift while hoisting, jacking or towing. Start by switching off the air suspension control and follow with the disassembly of the engine air cleaner together with the air compressor drier cover through pushpin removal. Proceed by removing both the pushpin for the snorkel then removing the snorkel itself. The air compressor disconnect proces starts with compressing the quick connect locking ring while pulling out the air line followed by taking off the electrical connector. The vehicle needs lifting while you detach the nuts before lowering it to extract the air compressor. The installation of air lines into compressor driers needs proper insertion where 3 mm (1/8 inch) of visible white air line must be visible from each fitting. The reverse of the removal steps will finish the process.
