Some suspension fault questions.

[simpin68]

I just finished spending 2 days replacing the power steering bracken. (something I recommend nobody ever does)

Now I have the car back together I have a problem with the suspension. The car is sitting low and the compressor is not coming on at all. [emoji24] First guess is I have broken something.

The compressor was on its last legs and I was about to put a kit through it but now it is just not working at all.

Questions are:

Does the car stop the pump if it picks up fault somewhere?

What could I have damaged around left front suspension to break it?

If the pump just suddenly died , how can I test it?

Could it just need a reset? (Wishfull thinking)

Do you have a diagnostic tool? (or access to one?)

Do you have a diagnostic tool? (or access to one?)Unfortunately I don't have one and don't know anybody with one. Except the machanic which us looking very attractive at this point

Update

Sorry, the pump is working. Just not getting any response from moving the suspension up or down.

well, a hard reset couldn't hurt - take both leads off the battery, and connect together. Note, don't connect the battery terminals, just the leads.

Unless a 2nd battery c/w Traxide controller is fitted....
