Compressor will only build pressure will not leak down

There may be a couple of reasons why your Air Lift WirelessONE Compressor System for Air Helper Springs # AL25980 only builds pressure and won't deflate.

One reason could be attributed to your vehicle's battery being too low. You'll want to ensure that your vehicle's battery is at least at 9 volts. You can use a multimeter like the Digital Multimeter with 42" Long Test Leads # PT89ZR.

Another reason could be due to your vehicle's battery putting out too much voltage, i.e. 18 volts or higher.

Finally, your compressors issues could be due to the manifold being too cold/or too hot. If the manifold is too cold, you can fix this by allowing the manifold to warm up.

Conversely, if your manifold is too hot you can wait for your manifold to cool, or you can move the manifold to a source that is not near a heat source.

If you're still having an issue after this, let me know and we can continue to troubleshoot.

I think mine is a wireless one as I put it on in 2017. It won’t deflate and if I pull a line off to deflate and plug it back on it inflates regardless where air pressure is set.

@Rick Hey Rick, this has come up before and when we spoke with Firestone they said the likely cause is that you have the air tubes in the back in the wrong places. Make sure that the line going from the location labeled DEL, goes to the air springs, and the other line going from the compressor goes to the location labeled SUP.

@Rick Interesting, honestly I'd give Firestone a ring and have them walk you through some troubleshooting then.
