Air matic problems

Hi, I’m now running in a 2011 X164 GL500, I changed the rear suspension airbag without taken out the compressor fuse and now nightmare came:

1: battery low message in red, only shown the next day.

2: Malfunction message (only if the car idle for 10-20 mins) I used to run in suspension sport mode, once the message show, it automatically goes to normal mode.

3: the car rev itself sometimes when I stopped waiting the traffic lights.

Is there anyone happens the same thing changing the suspension airbag with the fuse in and caused these problems? Any suggestions on which part I need to get fixed to solve this problem? Thanks!!

Is the rear sitting at the correct height or it's low? How about the front, low or normal?
Do you hear the compressor turn on?
Do you get any message that compressor has overheated and needs to cool down?
Are you able to read the malfunction code?

Now just one GL450 with EORP.
Changing out the rear bag without the breaker pulled would not have done anything - there are no electrical connections on the rear airbags.
If you disconnected the level sensor, that’s another story.
if you have a red battery warning your battery is weak or dead - have it tested.
