Suspension Fault

Hi All, first post here so please be gentle!

I have searched the forum and not found anything similar so here goes-

After a run in off road height yesterday and having reverted to normal I noticed aloud hissing from the rear of the car. I switched off and it stopped, after about a half hour went to move off and the rear suspension dropped to the stops on both sides with the warning “Normal height only available “.
This morning the car just reports “suspension fault” and the compressor doesn’t run.

I have checked:
Fuse ok
Relay ok
No visible damage to compressor housing
No damage to reservoir
No codes either logged or pending in the OBD

Is there anything else I should check before getting it to the dealer (specialists aren’t an option for me due to location)
All suggestions gratefully received...

Dave

Checked using an Autel maxidiag that I have from previous cars, although a bit long in the tooth it has proved reliable in the past.

Won't read you land rover suspension I'm afraid.
Looks like it will read the basic 4 systems engine, transmission, ABS and airbag
but not necessarily on a land rover.

Thanks for the quick reply- That’s disappointing, I was a bit surprised nothing was showing at all. Guess I’ll have to take it to the main dealer then. Getting bits here takes a bit of time and I need the car sorting soonest, longer term which type of diagnostic tool do you prefer?
