Can you set the ride height to whatever height you want  or non adjustable ...

In this picture what bit am i looking at to lever off 

[RobG]

Lever off joint (yellow arrow). The arm (red arrow) controls the height

[omega3000]

Thanks for that rob , not sure if mine is functioning correctly at the minute . Had a fair bit of weight in the boot but sagged quite a bit , i thought once any weight was loaded it was supposed to self level out  ill look into it

You can adjust the length of the rod buy unscrewing the clips (yellow) to make the rod longer. This in turn will force the sensor arm (red) up which should make the pump run a bit longer

In order to test whether the system works or not, turn ignition to position 2, then unclip the rod and push the sensor arm up as far as it goes. The pump should kick in after 5-10 seconds if not, it might need a tech 2 session to establish what is or isn't working you can't fail to notice if the pump is running or not, it's quite a noisy bugger

EMD's is a 97 (by his profile). Only 1998 on are diagnosable

EMD, do you have self levelling shocks?

[feeutfo]

Any hissing from the rear? Does the pump run and stop for the rest of the journey?

No hissing and pump cuts out after a few seconds  Self leveling shocks , i dont know i would have to check that ..


Now i need a picture of a self leveling shock ... ill google it and compair to a standard shock ..

[RobG]

About a 3rd down from top of shock should have a nipple with the small airline tube connected to it

Like these 

[RobG]

Yep

[omega3000]

So there must be some pipework , would that be in the boot behind the liner ...would be easier to check that way 

Is it air or fluid that pumps them up 

[feeutfo]

Air, and al the plumbing is on the under side.
