How to unlock the air suspensions of a Range Rover

Model: Land Rover Range Rover L322, MK 3 - Years 2002-2012
Part: Suspension system

In this video we can see how to fix a common issue that can happen with Range Rovers, which is the suspension getting stuck: the compressor is located in the trunk, under the spare tire. The YouTuber purchased a used Range Rover compressor to replace the worn parts. The first thing we will do is disconnect the negative battery cable, then expose the compressor by removing the cover and disconnecting all the electrical wiring. There are four bolts on the sides that we will not completely remove, but just loosen, in order to remove the plate from its housing. We replace the compressor with the functioning one we purchased and reconnect all the electrical cables, then put the cover back on with the four bolts. We close all the doors and reconnect the negative battery terminal, then start the car and put the suspension in "normal" mode, and it is finally starting to work again.
