Fiat Palio air suspension malfunction
Summary of the thread
The 2002 Fiat Palio is experiencing air suspension issues, with the car failing to lift and leaning, accompanied by an error message and warning light. The problem is suspected to be due to a defective cable or plug. A suggestion was made to check the compressor, which led to the discovery of a defective cable connection to the compressor, resolving the issue after repair.

Thanks! Ride height is definitely an issue; the car won't lift at all. You mentioned checking the compressor – is there a specific area or connection I should focus on?

Yeah, sounds like the same issue. Honestly, without proper tools, it's tough to diagnose properly. You're probably better off taking it to a workshop. I bet it's just a compressor failure, which isn't the end of the world.

Thanks so much for the insight! I appreciate you sharing your experience. I'll take it to the workshop as you suggested. It turned out to be exactly what you said: a defective cable connection to the compressor. The repair cost me 95€. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction!

Hey, I had something similar happen with my Palio. Is it giving you trouble with ride height at all? Could be related to suspension components or even air leaks. I'd check the compressor first.
