    Hey guys I know this is frustrating and hopefully I am not too late for some of you. It took me some atime but I think I got this. Follow this video but when you get into the WRITE THE SUSPENSION HEIGHT VALUES let the app read your truck sensors, then let your truck adjust its height and then STEP OUT FROM THE TRUCK AND MESAURE THE DISTANCE FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE WHEEL TO THE EDGE OF THE FENDER AND WRITE THIS VALUE FOR EACH SUSPENSION. After this your truck will adjust to its original height values, meaning this will adjust the normal, exit, off road 1 and off road 2 standard heights of your ECU System. Hope this works for you. ua-cam.com/video/mtVLk7WP2wU/v-deo.html

    Jeep 2017 Grand Cherokee Summit Quadra-Lift problems. Seems that the suspension system isn't at it's best. Just bought from Girlfriend this week. She said the local Jeep Dealer wanted to completely replace the Quadra-Lift system for $ 5000.00. This is the code when plugged in under dash. Code C156298 -States that "ride height air pump control component/system overtemperature" . I 've seen lots of videos showing and explained just to buy the RMT repair kit modules that are both under the hood. Can anyone help on if this has repaired most of the air suspension Quad probs and what else could be the issue if these modules under the hood aren't the problem ? Any and all suggestions will be appreciated before I buy anything .......

    @quincybirwood2629 2 роки тому

    Hey folks. The quadralift system is a closed system that is filled with nitrogen not air. The closed system eliminates the introduction of moisture that causes rust problems in so many air suspensions systems. If you have leaks and fix them, you'll still need to go to the dealer (or mechanic) and have the nitrogen topped up. Just like the brake system, if there isn't enough fluid in the lines, it's not going to work right.

    That is nitrogen. You have to get that refilled at the dealer. It's a closed system and once it escapes it doesn't automatically refill.

    • @timadams3647
      @timadams3647 2 роки тому

      This is partially correct. If you lose nitrogen pressure, the system backfills with atmosphere. Nitrogen is better because it contains almost no moisture. It is a good idea after this repair to get the system recharged.

    If it's a closed system, shouldn't it be concerning about how much air that was lost by disconnecting both of those hoses? I trust that it works, i'm just worried that all that air loss will lead to a slower lifting/lowering and the total ground clearance.

    • @timadams3647
      @timadams3647 2 роки тому

      Sort of. The system replaced lost nitrogen with air. Technically you should have the nitrogen recharged after the repair. They will purge the air out. If you live somewhere without much humidity, that step is less pressing.

    So, just wanted to let you know incase you have a similar issue in the future, and anyone else reading this. I just fixed mine in about 10 minutes for about 10 cents. I own my own big rig, so always carry a selection set of O-rings, cause it stops me getting stranded for the sake of a 10 cent o ring. My set goes from 7/32”x1/16” up to 11/16”x1/8”. Inside the Jeep fitting where the supply pipe fits in, is a little double thickness o ring. So, using a small hook tip screw driver I removed it. Then, using a set of tweezers I replaced it with 2 o-rings of the same diameter from my kit and voila! It fixed the leak. It’s a little fiddly getting the new ones in, but doable at home. The whole o-Ring kit cost about 15 bucks, so at worst, the two o-rings were 10 cents, if that. Hope that maybe helps some folks. I know a replacement part is only Fourty bucks, but I’m all about keeping costs down and refurbing if I can 😊
