The unit measures 78 x 233 x 99 mm and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +70°C at 24 V, featuring a Bayonet 4-pole electrical connection and an IP 64 protection class.

Key Features & Benefits

This control panel primarily manages the air suspension system, if your vehicle has one. It’s basically the brain that tells the compressor when to pump air into the air springs – those big rubber bags that replace traditional coil springs. It also monitors the height sensors at each wheel and adjusts the air pressure to keep the vehicle level, no matter how much weight you’ve got in it, or what kind of terrain you’re driving on. Sometimes it controls things like ride height adjustment, letting you raise or lower the vehicle. Think of it like the conductor of an orchestra. The height sensors and other components are the musicians, sending information back to the control panel. The panel then sends signals to the compressor and solenoid valves to make everything work together smoothly. It keeps your ride comfortable, and helps maintain proper handling. It’s a pretty key component in keeping the air suspension functioning as it should.

Symptoms, Risks & Replacements

Honestly, without this working right, your air suspension is useless. You’ll notice if it fails – the vehicle will likely start to sag on one side, the ride will get really rough, and potentially even throw on a warning light. It's a safety thing too – a severely sagging vehicle isn’t handling properly. Sometimes a failing control panel will cause the compressor to run constantly, trying to maintain pressure. We carry these at Fixparts Online, and a lot of times replacing the panel is a lot cheaper than trying to fix a faulty compressor that’s been overworked. It really restores the whole system back to how it’s supposed to perform.
