how to reset 98 Lincoln Mark 8 air ride system

This happens -- and the most important thing is that you do not drive it with air full in the air springs, as you can cause damage. I would recommend: -Turn off the vehicle -Exit the car, and close the door(s) -Open the trunk -Turn the air suspension switch off -Close the trunk -Get in the car, close the door -Start the car and run it, but do not drive -Shut the car off -Exit the vehicle and shut the door -Open the trunk and turn the air suspension switch back on -Close the trunk -Get in the car again, start the car, and run it. At the point you open the drivers door and start the vehicle, the system should detect that the ride height is too high and if the compressor is working properly, it should start to vent the system to allow the air springs to return to the proper trim level.
