Question 1

How to replace the Air Suspension Compressor on Buick LeSabre?

Accepted Answer

To substitute the Air Suspension Compressor, one has to first raise the vehicle and secure it at the right place. Clean the Air Hose and the components around it to ensure that there is no dirt going into the alc system prior to disconnecting the Air Hose from either the intake Air Filter or the Air Suspension Compressor. Disconnect the air tube from the air dryer, sequentially remove the bolt and harness tie of the air tube from the Air Suspension Compressor bracket. Remove the intake Air Filter, as well as disconnect the vehicle harness connector from the Air Suspension Compressor connector. Next, take off the two nuts, the bolt and the Air Suspension Compressor assembly out of the vehicle, then slide the Air Suspension Compressor connector off the anchor. Demount the two bolts and heat shield off of the Air Suspension Compressor bracket, then the three bolts holding the Air Suspension Compressor assembly to the bracket. Unplug the air dryer from the Air Suspension Compressor and disconnect the Air Hose both at two points from the compressor. Second, unfasten the two screws and the two brackets from the Air Suspension Compressor. For installation, fix the two brackets on the Air Suspension Compressor with the two screws by tightening it to 7nm (62 inch lbs.). Screw the Air Hose from the Air Suspension Compressor at two ends before fitting the air dryer onto the Air Suspension Compressor. Mount the Air Suspension Compressor assembly to the bracket by using three bolts which are tightened to 3nm (26inch lbs.). Mount the heat shield onto the Air Suspension Compressor bracket using two bolts and leaving out the third bolt till the time the air tube will be connected. Connect the Air Suspension Compressor connector to the connector anchor and then place the Air Suspension Compressor assembly on the vehicle by tightening the bolt to 9 nm (80 inch lbs) and the nuts to 9 nm (80 inch lbs). Attach the harness connector to the Air Suspension Compressor connector, replace the intake Air Filter, and attach the air tube to the air dryer. Lastly, connect the air tube with the harness tie to the Air Suspension Compressor bracket using bolt tightening 3 bolts 4 nm (35 inch lbs.). Turn on the ignition and wait for about 45 seconds for the alc system to perform the arc to result in residual pressure in the air adjustable shock absorbers, and then lower the vehicle.

Question 2

How to Properly Install an Air Suspension Compressor on Buick Lucerne?

Accepted Answer

Starting the replacement of the Air Suspension Compressor requires vehicle elevation with proper support. Before removing the Air Hose from the Air Suspension Compressor or intake Air Filter please clean the Air Hose connections to stop foreign matter from accessing the alc system. First disconnect the air dryer air tube and then remove the bracket's bolt and harness tie along with the tube from the Air Suspension Compressor bracket. Disconnect the Air Suspension Compressor connector while also taking out the intake Air Filter. Remove the vehicle's two nuts and bolt and Air Suspension Compressor assembly before sliding the Air Suspension Compressor connector from its connector anchor. Start by first disassembling the Air Suspension Compressor bracket by both removing its heat shield and its two securing bolts. Finish by unbolting the three attachments holding the Air Suspension Compressor assembly to its bracket position. Separate the air dryer from the Air Suspension Compressor while removing air hoses from two different compressor openings and finally remove the two screws and two brackets from the compressor assembly. Begin installation by attaching the two brackets onto the Air Suspension Compressor with the two screws tightened to 7 nm (62 inch lbs.). The Air Hose needs to connect to the Air Suspension Compressor at two points followed by mounting the air dryer onto the compressor. Secure the Air Suspension Compressor assembly to the bracket using three bolts that must be tightened to 3 nm (26 inch lbs.). The heat shield should go onto the Air Suspension Compressor bracket with two bolts in place while keeping the third bolt free for future connection between the air tube. Mount the Air Suspension Compressor assembly onto the vehicle by first connecting its connector to the connector anchor and then tightening the bolt to 9 nm (80 inch lbs.) and the nuts to 9 nm (80 inch lbs.). The harness connector must attach to the Air Suspension Compressor connector while you replace the intake Air Filter and connect the air tube to the air dryer. Use the bolt to connect the air tube to the Air Suspension Compressor bracket before tightening the bolts to 4 nm (35 inch lbs.). After starting the engine wait roughly 45 seconds for the alc system to run the arc which adds residual pressure to the air adjustable shock absorbers before lowering the vehicle.
