Air Level Control

My 'Air Level Controller' fuse blows within minutes of replacing. When I replace the fuse(under the back seat) the compressor does not come on, although the fuse heats up and blows?

Any ideas? I am going to replace the air shocks, but wondering about the leveler as well - strange behaviour...

thx.

The shocks themselves would not be the reason for a blown fuse.
A fuse will only blow if there is an over amperage condition or a short.
I would look at the compressor itself which is in the rear of the car.
If the compressor tests out fine look for a shorted wire or sensor.

Thanks for the reply, I'll get under there with a tester.

Is the compressor easy to get to?

thx.

What year do you have? My 2002 is under the rear quarter and accessible.

Mine is a 99. I have heard that it is quite accessable.

I see that there are air leveler kits that have the controller in the cab - that seems cool, being able to lower/rise the rear with a button.

thx.
