INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONSCongratulations on your purchase of a Wireless

Air Command kit. This kit was designed to provideinflation control of your air helper springs. This kit willbe an asset to your vehicle, meeting nearly all of your airsupply needs.

Please take a few minutes to read through theinstructions to identify the components and learn how toproperly install your Wireless Air Command kit.

NOTE:The Wireless Air Command kit can be used

with all air helper spring products. If you are installing anair suspension system, do not install the air line tubing tothe air springs as stated in the suspension system instruc-tion manual. If you are adding the Wireless Air Com-mand kit to an existing air suspension system, you willneed to deflate the air springs and remove the air linetubing.

4 CORNER WIRELESS AIR COMMAND

NOTE ON CONNECTING THE AIR LINE TUBING

Cut the air line tubing as squarely as possible.To connect the air line tubing to the fittings, push thetubing into the fittings as far as possible. If for any reasonthe tubing must be removed, first release the air pressurefrom the air helper spring. Push the collar towards thebody of the fitting and then pull out the tubing. Toreassemble, make sure the tubing is cut squarely andpush the tubing back into the fitting.

USING THE MEMORY KEYSOnce the vehicle has been leveled and the desired pressure set, the displayed pressures can be stored and retrieved using the three memory buttons. Hold one of the memory buttons down for three seconds and release. To recall the stored pressures, press the memory button once. To inflate/deflate to the stored pressures, press the same memory button again within five seconds.

STEP 1 – MOUNT THE COMPRESSORDisconnect the negative battery cable. Select aconvenient location to mount the compressor.This location should provide ample airflow andbe protected from airborne debris. The mount-ing surface should be rigid to support the com-pressor. The compressor is oil-less and can bemounted in any orientation necessary for instal-lation. Make sure that the wire harness willreach from the compressor to the anticipatedlocation of the ECU. Install a male fitting into thetreaded output on the compressor head, seeFigure “A”. Tighten the fitting sufficiently toengage at least two threads with the pre-appliedthread sealant. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THEFITTING. Mark the four compressor mountingholes using the compressor as a template and acenter punch, then drill four 3/16" holes. Mountthe compressor using the supplied 10-32 x 1"machine screw, 10-32 nylock nuts and 3/16"

washers. See Figure “B”. Attach the black wire from the compressor to a suitableground source on the vehicle.

STEP 2 – MOUNT THE MANIFOLD BLOCKSelect the valve blocks from your kit. Install the pressure sensors into the back of thevalve blocks. See Figure “A”. Select a convenient location to mount the valve blocksnear the compressor. Mark the four mounting holes using the valve block as a templateand a center punch, then drill four 9/32" holes. Mount the valve block using the supplied1/4-20 x 2-1/2" bolts and 1/4-20 washers and nuts.

STEP 3 – MOUNT THE ECUSelect a location away from direct road spray and close to the compressor and valveblocks. Mark the two mounting holes using the ECU as a template with a center punch.Drill two 3/16" holes and mount ECU using two 10-32 x 3/4" machine screws and 10-32nylock nuts.

STEP 4 –WIRE THE ECU, COMPRESSOR, AND VALVE BLOCKAttach the tan wire and one white wire with ring terminal to the studs of the pressuresender at PS1. Attach the violet wire and another white wire to the studs of the pressuresender at PS2. Plug the connector with the tan/white and violet/white wires into thevalve block. Attach the orange wire and one white wire with ring terminal to the studs ofthe pressure sender at PS1 on the second valve block. Attach the blue wire and the lastwhite wire to the studs of the pressure sender at PS2 on the second valve block. Plugthe connector with the orange/white and blue/white wires into the valve block.Groundthe compressor (black wire with ring terminal), ECU (black wire with ring terminal), andvalve blocks (black wires with ring terminal) to a suitable location on the chassis. Attachthe red wire with the spade terminal to the red wire of the compressor. Route the redwire with the fuse to a +12VDC power source. Attach the yellow wire to an ignition-activated source. See Figure “A”.

STEP 5 – MOUNT THE WIRELESS GAUGEThe wireless gauge can be mounted in the cabin using the four Velcro pads. Place thepads on the back of the gauge and then firmly place the gauge onto the mounting loca-tion. The gauge should not be left outside of the vehicle if not in operation.

STEP 6 – ROUTE THE AIR LINECut a section of airline tubing that will reach from the compressor to the valve blocks.Cut the airline tubing as squarely as possible, insert the tubing into the male fitting on thecompressor, and then into the supplied tee fitting. Route a section from the tee fitting tothe fittings on both valve blocks labeled IN. Cut a section of airline tubing that will reachfrom the valve block to one of the air springs. Cut the airline tubing as squarely as pos-sible, insert the tubing into the fitting on the valve block labeled LF/LR, and then insertthe other end into the left front/left rear air spring. Use the nylon ties provided to securethe airline tubing to the vehicle. Route the tubing to avoid direct heat from the exhaustsystem and away from any sharp edges. Repeat this last step on the other right front/right rear air spring and connect to the valve block port labeled RF/RR. There is a fittingon the valve block labeled EXH for exhaust. This is an option and not necessary forproper operation.

STEP 7 – USING THE WIRELESS CONTROLLERWith the Wireless Air Command kit and the air springs installed, you are ready to test thesystem. Re-attach the negative battery cable and place the 9V battery into the gauge.Turn on the vehicle’s ignition. The gauge will display how much air pressure is in the sys-tem.

Once the system has been turned on (press any of the buttons), the MODE and ARROWkeys are used to cycle through the screen and make selections to inflate/deflate the airsprings. Pressing the MODE button once will display an arrow pointing at the Front Left(FL) corner. Pressing the up/down button at this time will change the pressure in the airspring. Continuing to press the MODE button will cycle through the corners:

Press MODE Selection1 Front Left (LF)2 Front Right (RF)3 Rear Left (LR)4 Rear Right (RR)5 Fronts (LF & RF)6 Rears (LR & RR)7 All corners (LF,RF,LR,RR)8 Returns to single selection (LF)

Once the pressure has been selected, the system will turn on the compressor or openthe exhaust valve to change the pressure. The change can be stopped by pressing eitherarrow key.

The display will turn off after 20 seconds of inactivity. To show the display, just press anyof the buttons.

STEP 8 – CHECK THE SYSTEMInflate the air springs to 70 psi or the max air spring pressure, which ever is less, andcheck the fittings for air leaks with a solution of soap and water. If a leak is detected at atubing connection, check to make sure that the tube is cut as squarely as possible andthat it is pushed completely into the fitting. The tubing can easily be removed from thefitting by first releasing the pressure from the air spring, then by pushing the collar to-wards the body of the fitting and holding, then pulling the tube out.

2489/2500 NOTICE

TROUBLESHOOT WIRELESS INSTALLATION

• The display shows 120 PSI; After the bags are inflated, the system exhaust to 0 PSI; The system will not inflate.

o The white wires (daisy-chain) are grounded.

• The display reads 0 PSI; The system does not respond to any inputs; Cycles back to 0 PSI.

o Valve block is not grounded.

• Display shows correct pressure; Will not open valves to inflate; Will not turn

compressor on; Will exhaust to correct pressure. o ECU is not grounded.

• System will not stop at correct pressure; Compressor continuously inflates one side while the other side stays at 0 PSI.IF PRESSURE SENDER WIRE PAIRS ARE REVERESED

o Pressure sender wires are reversed (attached to the wrong

• If the display read 0 PSI; Tries to inflate one corner but exhausts to 0 PSI; Other corner works correctly.

o Pressure sensor has failed. If possible, this can be verified with an OHM reading. The normal reading at 0 PSI should be ~10 OHMS.
