I was in my truck and everything worked fine. About 4 hours later i go in my truck and nothing will work. None of my airbag stuuff at least. My valves don't work and my comps wont kick on. My stereo and all the other electrical stuff works jsut not the air bags. I sat there playing with hte switched and no sound, couldn't get my comps to turn on and it's all wired to my battery.

What happened any ideas? Mabye a wire came loose or something. I checked my relays they were ok.

did you check your power wires, if thats hooked up did you check your relay? relay probably crapped out.

i will really try in the future to read the whole post :rolleyes: how did you check the relay? you can't really unless you have another one to hook up or your good with a test light.

May sound stupid but do you have a fuse between the relay and the battery? If not you burned out your relay...

i just looked at the relays and one of htey has some blue corroded stuff on on of hte prongs. Guess that may be it. Don't have no extra realys lying around so wont be able to find out till tom. should i buy a new socket as well or just hte relay?

how cold is it? if its the little round green Pressure switch and its cold outside, i bet thats it. mine sticks when its cold outside, mine is the one from jason also, you can check by touching the two power wires that are going into your relay, together and if it turns on thats your prob. i know that was it for me. little warm water in the morning fixed it right up.

I'm curious on how relays would affect the valves :dunno:

If nothing works (the valves), then they HAVE to be frozen. If all valves won't lift or dump, then there is either no air in the tank or the valves are frozen. Thats all I can think of.

Or a bad ground if there is no clicking.

i have no idea i'm going to mess with it tom when I have some light outside. I don't think my valves are frozed it's only like 40 degrees down here. Plus that doesn't solve the problem with the comps not turning on. I'm going to try a few things so hopefully i can find what this problem is becuase i can't drive my truck now.

thanks for the replies i appreicate the help
