Default Air suspension issues with Codes C2302 and C1419

I have a 2009 VDP and the Dash says car too low and it is bottomed out at all 4 corners. I used my iCarsoft i930 reader and got the following Codes:
C2302
C1419
Left front damper status 15

When I start the car, it does not rise at all. I can hear the compressor running, but it does not sound really strong. I have replaced the two rear shocks a year or so ago. Within the last few months, the right rear of the car seemed to sag a bit, after it had been parked for a while, but it would pump right back up when the car was started. My battery is a dealer battery, about a year old. The car has sat for a bit, but it was still starting right up, but I just charged the battery back up.

Not sure where to start, with my diagnosis journey?

First thing to do is make sure the front left air spring is plugged in on top. Also since you’re in Ohio and it’s cold, check for any possible rodent damage specifically in the same front left electrical connector area. I’ve seen under hood insulation chewed up and nests built in the cabin filter area before. The rubber in the air springs don’t flex much when it’s really cold out and subsequently don’t seal up as well either which could also be the issue. I know the air suspension is wonderful….. when it works but, we’ve had so many issues with them that we just recommend the coil overs from Arnott and be done with it.

Just an fyi, this is the 98’-03’ X308 XJ8/XJR section. You need to post this in the 04’-09’ X350/358

Thanks,

Do you know how I move my post to another section?

I think I was able to post my question to the correct category.
