Troubleshooting a 1999 Lincoln Town Car with Inoperative Air Suspension

- Check the air suspension fuses and relays:

1. Locate the fuse box in the trunk (behind the rear seats).

2. Identify the fuses labeled "AIR SUSPENSION" or "AIR RIDE."

3. Check if the fuses are blown or damaged if so replace them.

- Check the air suspension height sensors:

1. The height sensors are located on the front and rear axles.

2. Inspect the height sensors for damage or corrosion and check if they are properly connected to the air suspension control module.

3. Clean the height sensors and their connections if necessary.

Perform a system pressure test:

1. Pressurize the air suspension system using the recommended method.

2. Check the pressure readings on the air suspension control module or use an external pressure gauge.

3. Compare the pressure readings with the specified values for your vehicle model.

- Check the air lines and connections:

1. Inspect the air lines for leaks, cracks, or damage.

2. Ensure the air lines are securely connected to the air suspension components and the air compressor.

3. Tighten any loose connections or replace damaged air lines.

Check the air suspension control module:

1. The air suspension control module is usually located in the trunk.

2. Inspect the control module for any visible damage or corrosion.

3. Check the electrical connections to the control module and ensure they are secure.

Reinitialize the air suspension system:

1. Disconnect the battery for a few minutes (refer to your vehicle's service manual for the correct procedure).

2. Reconnect the battery and turn on the ignition.

3. Allow the air suspension system to initialize and check if the car raises to the proper height.

If the issue persists, it is recommended to have your vehicle diagnosed by a qualified mechanic or a mechanic specializing in air suspension systems to identify and rectify any underlying problems.
