Airmatic - Visit Workshop warning

2003 S430 4Matic. Everything is fine. Car raises with push of a button, air let's out when parked and ignition off. Yesterday morning, warning light came on. Afternoon, no malfunction for awhile and then, it came on.
THis morning, starting up, no warning, driving for 10 minnutes, warning "Airmatic - Visit Workshop" came on again.

What could be the issue? Front does not see to have cracks on top.....

Is this relay? Pump is working fine...

ALL FIXED

Got the brand new OEM compressor and replaced. Works like a charm. Shop was commenting to get the front seals replaced foro the shocks. $109 each for the job. Made an appointment to get it done. Front shock top was showing little cracks.
