to top off an night. One of my compressors Isn't working and I will be trouble shooting tomorrow.

I do still have one compressor still working but Its on overhaul right now.

I have messaged AZ and UAS about the solenoids Needing to trouble shoot

I really hope Its the small things rather than a rebuild on the compressor.

But If one was seized then I would imagine that like last time I would have blown fuses. or melted them like last time.

Wish me luck . I have work tomorrow but after work gotta find out whats going on so I can get the car wet sanded Saturday Morning so I can hurry up and get the fog lights in and the chrome strips aswell.

fingers crossed and something always happens doesn't it guys ? fawq

Thanks Joe and I don't have alot of $$$ nahhhh

I am just going to focus on the last rebuild and get things back in order pretty soon.

Updates 1-16-2010


Car is back up,

Last night I tested the solenoid and the compressor and ended up ripping the Az compressor out as it sits in the garage. It is on but Not doing anything.

Rebuild is needed. the Air system is all sealed up but Not wanting to over load the one compressor so it will stay high.

The car was dropped off this morning about an hr ago for the wet sand and touchups.

should get it back today and will get to install the new foglights and the chrome strips. Once that gets done I will look into the rewire diy for the fogs to be on when I want them on.

Them get some new 55watt 6k hid fogs ordered and look at getting those Ls400 brakes now.

you are hilarious bro ,

Keep in mind too One has been rebuilt.. I was melting 150 amp fues not knowing that It was a seized compressor... That sucked

The newer one has lasted 3 years and I have used them alot.

(2) 380-480 Viair compressors actually equal 1 Air Zenith compressor ,so I really have the power of 4 viairs and only two as of right now.

I will pm you a pic. the build thread will remain on the (_Lowkey_) until ready
