Raise airmatic without car key
Hey guys I’m hoping someone might know how to manually raise the suspension via a standalone compressor. The key has been lost but the car needs to be towed and is currently sitting way too low to be moved.

If the car had a complete collapse of the suspension, it might be too low to even get a jack under it.

Thanks for the responses guys. As it turns out the tow driver was able to maneuver the vehicle onto the back of his tilt tray, although now it has been left on soil at the new location.
The car is still sitting too low to insert a jack underneath, with only a few inches accessible so it is even more imperative to jack her up and place on blocks before the tyres begin to corrode due to moisture in the ground.
If need be I guess I can dig holes to get the jack underneath. At least moving the car is no longer an issue...

Depending on problem, the key may not help as the compressor could be broken and wouldn't be able to lift the car anyway...
