Troubleshooting Connecting to Air Command F3 Compressor System

Question

Question:

Hi, I just purchased a used truck and it has the firestone air rite with the f3 equipment. I have none of the connection data from the original owner. Is there a way to reset the system to be able to connect to it?

All you will need to connect to the Air Command F3 Compressor System is the remote. If the remote is not connecting, I recommend replacing the batteries and making sure you are also using it within range. To "reset" the system you can pull the power from the ECU. If this does not solve the problem I recommend reaching out to Firestone directly to see if replacement parts are still available.
