Air Compressor

The air compressor is a positive displacement air pump, powered by a 12 volt DC permanent-magnet motor. The air compressor head contains intake and exhaust ports plus a solenoid-operated exhaust valve that releases air from the ALC system when energized. Air compressor intake air is drawn through an intake air hose and filter, mounted in the right side body rail. The air compressor is a serviceable part and is mounted on a bracket. The bracket is mounted to the underbody, right side, rear of the rear suspension.
