Airmatic E500 Compressor shuts down too soon
2003 E500 airmatic replaced air line (rub through on inner fender liner) from compressor to air valve body. Compressor turns on and shuts off minutes later. Car is sitting down on all four tires.
1. Is there a bladder tank?
2. Any way to test pressure cut off switch attached to valve body
Thanks for any help..... it is appreciated

Maybe pump is burnt up? Did you check relay and see if burned? Pump could get hot and melt line on pump itself and leak internally....
You could also have a leaking shock, or spring or bad valve? Lot of could be's....
