Installation notes:
1. The computer box should be mounted inside the vehicle to avoid moisture and to be accessible to make
programming changes. DO NOT MOUNT THE COMPUTER BOX IN THE ENGINE BAY OR
UNDERNEATH THE CAR.
2. Do not plug in the receiver module until all the wiring is complete.
3. The air pressure sending units must be grounded to function properly. This can be accomplished
through a metal mounting bracket or by attaching a ground wire to the main body of the sensor.
4. The control panel display unit can be flush mounted or surface mounted in any location inside the
vehicle…or it can be left unmounted. It is supplied with 6 ft. leads to the computer box. 12 ft. leads are
available from the factory if desired. DO NOT lengthen or shorten these leads…call the factory for a longer
harness.
5. The control panel is an LCD display. This display may be unsatisfactory if mounted at an extreme angle
to the driver. You may want to power up the system temporarily to insure you are able to see the display
properly in your selected mounting location.
How to program the air pressure presets:
To Program air pressure preset #1: This is the default setting that will be engaged every time the vehicle
is started. It can also be engaged via the [optional] keyfob transmitter by placing the slide switch in the “up”
position. It is recommended that this air pressure be adjusted to the highway ride height of the vehicle.
1. Place the DIP-switches located on the side of the computer box in the OFF [“up”] position
2.Turn ignition ON
3. Set desired air pressure of the vehicle with main control panel switches
4. Press the “program” button, located on the side of the computer box 6 times, (If the program
button is held for 3 seconds on the 7th press of the button, level one will be set.) … the led beside the
program button will then flash (4 Times) to indicate programming was successful.
OPTIONAL: If you have the optional remote control system, set the slide switch on the side of the
transmitter to the “UP” position and press the #5 button on the side of the keyfob transmitter to enter the #1
setting into the remote control system. The main control panel display will flash slowly four times to indicate
remote control setting #1 was successful.
After ALL programming is complete, return the DIP switches to the “ON” position to activate
the air pressure presets.
To Program air pressure setting #2: This air pressure preset is only accessible from the optional remote
control keyfob transmitter. This air pressure setting is typically adjusted to set the vehicle at a lower ride
height for parking.
1. Place the DIP-switches located on the side of the computer box in the OFF [“up”] position
2.Turn ignition ON
3. Set desired air pressure of the vehicle with main control panel switches
4. Press the “program” button, located on the side of the computer box 6 times … the led beside the
program button will then flash.
5. Set the slide switch on the side of the transmitter to the “DOWN” position and press the #5 button
on the side of the keyfob transmitter to enter the #2 setting into the remote control system. The main
control panel display will flash quickly four times to indicate remote control setting #2 was successful.
After ALL programming is complete, return the DIP-switches to the “ON” position to activate the
air pressure presets.
NOTE: The vehicle will return to the #1 air pressure preset every time the vehicle is started. If you DO NOT
wish to use the air pressure preset feature, simply leave the DIP switches in the “OFF” [UP] position.
