Fortuner Air Suspension Fault

I've got a 2011 Toyota Fortuner, gasoline engine, and the air suspension seems to have given up at 161479 km. The car's sitting low, especially on one side, and there's a warning light. I'm getting an error message and the low beams are off. The error memory mentions something. Anyone else had this? Could a dodgy connection really be the cause?

Hey! I had something similar with my Fortuner. Ride height was all over the place. Vehicle wouldn't lift anymore, and it looked like it was permanently leaning. Is it making any weird noises? I'd check the suspension pump. Any luck finding anything obvious with the air struts?

No weird noises that I've noticed, and I haven't had a proper look at the struts yet. Was your issue also a faulty connection or something more serious?

Turns out it was a defective cable connection. I thought it was going to be a new compressor for sure. I'd get it checked out properly at a workshop, but hopefully, it's a similar easy fix!

Thanks for the info! Workshop confirmed it's just a defective plug connection - repair cost 95€. Much appreciated!
