Mine did that.  Disconnected the air hose, let the suspension settle at the bottom, reconnected the air hose, put in a little bit of air to lift it slightly and then disconnected the compressor.  Never found out why it wasn't working properly, but couldn't afford to spend time on it either - not been a problem since.
If you don't tow a caravan, or heavy trailer, then it's probably not much of a problem once it's disconnected.

After giving it some thought though, that would only make the pump run when the ignition is on....   so yes!  does sound like a wiring problem elsewhere :-/

Check the actuator anyway for peace of mind..
