I tried some of the active tests today. The "fill central reservoir" test showed 0 PSI and when I activated the test I heard the compressor/air pump come on for a few seconds, then it stopped. The PSI displayed did not move from zero.
I tried the test to raise the front of the car and it actually went lower. I think there is no pressure in the system. Bad air pump?
