New member and xj8 owner hope you can help
This is my first forum ever. It is only because of the quality of the answers I have read that I thought I would join and give it a try.
04 Jaj XJ8 - I bought a wrecked xj slight damage. hood, lights bumper cover and air bag. it has 48k and well cared for, at least untill they crashed it. Replaced all items, dealer cleared airbag light, but C2303 air suspension fault remained. I have read many threads about leaks and relays and compressors but being as cheap as I am tried a different route. I purchased an entire 04 xj for parts to save cash when repairing the car. After the Dealer told me 1325.00 for the air compressor, I knew I had one home. The doner car has no lights on for any suspension issue. I took the R1 relay and the compressor and installed both. Returned to dealer for the codes to be cleared. Dealer says C2303 reappeared right away. I installed my old compressor in the doner and it still doesn't record an error. Sorry for the length but one more thing. The original car had zenon lights. doner didn't. the schematic shows a sensing wire to the suspension module. could that be related? Thanks any thoughts are appreciated.
