Hey Edward, thanks for reaching out. The Air Lift WirelessONE compressor can still kick on if the truck is off, but it really shouldn'n have to. If your system is turning on while the truck is sitting with everything off, that means the system is detecting a pressure drop and trying to maintain the preset pressure. The compressor will automatically cycle if it senses a leak anywhere in the air lines, fittings, or air bags.
The system is only supposed to run when it needs to restore lost pressure, so if it’s activating on its own, you likely have a small air leak. I’d recommend checking all fittings, air line cuts, and connection points with a soapy water solution to pinpoint the leak.

Hey Edward, did you get a chance to check for leaks in your Air Lift WirelessONE system using the soapy water test? It’d be great to know if that helped stop the compressor from running while the truck is off. Your update could make it easier for others dealing with the same issue.
