Suspension compressor won't turn off.

2008 GL 550

My suspension compressor won't turn off. I had it diagnosed and was told my compressor was no good. I replaced the compressor and it still won't turn off. I suspect my first compressor went because it ran too much? I appear to have no leaks and the relay is good. I can even hear a pressure relief valve going off so I know it's building up enough pressure in the system that it should be shutting down on its own (something I couldn't hear on my old compressor). I'm suspecting a sensor is not working properly which is causing my compressor to stay on. Thoughts please.

You either have bad height sensor or you have a leak in the system somewhere.

I'm suspecting sensor as the system does appear to pressure up to the point where you hear a relief valve go, not sure where that relief valve is but it comes from around the compressor, I didn't see one on the compressor itself.
