2006 Ford Expedition Air Suspension Compressor Parts Q&A

• Q: How to service and repair the air suspension compressor on 2006 Ford Expedition?

  A: The air suspension compressor repair process starts with removing the air suspension relay from its bracket while also unattaching the windshield washer pump and reservoir. The compressor drier requires disconnecting the air line when you push the orange lock ring inward while pulling the line away from the drier. First disconnect the air compressor electrical connector before removing the air compressor bracket bolts with the goal of taking out the air compressor/drier assembly while tightening these bolts to 9 Nm (80 inch lbs.) during reinstallation. Discard the bracket of the air compressor by taking away the three screws and washers alongside the three rubber isolators. The silencer (muffler) must be removed by discarding its retaining screws to break the connection with the bracket. Complete insertion of the white air line into its fitting is necessary for a successful reinstallation. The installation should start by reversing the removal steps to guarantee objects remain clear of both the bracket and that the air compressor avoids contact with other components and moves without issue within the rubber isolators and eliminates vibration noises. Check that the bracket remains undeformed so rubber isolators do not load against each other during installation; install only new fasteners when utilizing new brackets from the kit.
