The compressor is located in a compartment in the left front wheel hub. To access it you have to remove the air cleaner and the washer fluid reservior.
suspension system is rattling How to repair the rattle?
I had a friend replace the air suspension compressor pump with a used one that I bought on ebay. The air compressor pump is located under the windshied washer fluid container. You have to take a cover plate off to get to it or even see it. We discovered that the top of the air suspension compressor pump, where the air hose goes into it, screws off with a crescent wrench. So we just left the hose attached to the top of the pump and replaced the body of the the pump. I have no idea how you would just replace the hose.
The Mark 8 does not have a check-valve in the air suspension system. Each air spring has a solenoid valve, which controls fill and vent of the spring. There is a fifth in the suspension compressor itself, which controls venting the system. I discovered that the seat for vent valve was corroded in my compressor, which would then leak when the system was trying to fill. This resulted in the compressor running, but the car lowering. I was able to clean the seat up for a temporary repair, but ultimately replaced the compressor.
I have a 2002 Navigator and mine just went out. Its on the passengers side right under the antifreeze container. I just bought mine from here.

the commpressor is located under the air filter on left front side. Just turn the suspension switch in the trunk off
If the compressor has failed internally there is really nothing a backyard mechanic can do to repair it except replacement. But leaking fittings, or a bad clutch pulley can be easily done. You will need to find out which problem you have and go from there.

I replaced the air suspension on my 1993 town car with one of Strutmasters air suspension conversion kits. My baby rides good again and they have a lifetime warranty. Hard to go wrong.
It depends on why it failed. It should tell you right on your suspension check sheet. If your suspension is failing it is a numerous amount of components that are involved. The compressor could be shot, the air bags could be leaking, your solenoids could need replacing, the air lines could have leaks or holes in them, the dryer could need replacing, your relay could have issues. There are so many things that could go wrong with this and the cost to replace these items can be costly. edit: these are all for electronic/hydraulic controlled suspension systems, these are only on high end cars. On most cars, a failed suspension check would most commonly be caused by failing shock absorbers or ball joints. Though other parts also will fail, it is much less common they do.

there are four air suspension relays (selonoids). they are located at the top of each air boot. you'll see a small wire harnes with a connector going to it. my opinion is to just changed the realy(it's really a selonide--does same thing).
