Question:
Hi, I recently installed the Firestone Airide 2922 Single Path air compressor system…with the truck turned off, I connected all the wiring and the compressor turned on…is it supposed to turn on with the vehicle turned off? Instructions said connect directly to the battery.

Expert Reply:
Yes, it is. The Firestone Air Command Standard Duty Air Compressor item # F29VV is connected directly to the battery. It'll run for up to 5 mins and shut off or once your air bags reach the correct pressure setting. If it runs constantly you've got a leak somewhere.
