Inspection and Verification
Inspection and VerificationWARNING: The electrical power to the air suspension system must be shut off prior to hoisting, jacking or towing an air suspension vehicle. This can be accomplished by turning off the air suspension switch located in the RH kick panel area. Failure to do so can result in unexpected inflation or deflation of the air springs, which can result in shifting of the vehicle during these operations. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
1. Verify the customer concern.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical or electrical damage.
