• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Ultimate Trailer OHT3 with air ride Compressor issues - ideas?

My friend Therese just got back from Colorado with her new trailer for her Spyder. They played around with the air ride switch before she left.

It would not raise on its on-board compressor when she got back here to Arizona. Another friend adjusted the micro switch, so it raises and shuts off the compressor.

What we are seeing while checking it out is that if it is plugged in and receiving power from the Tow Vehicle, when you dump the air to lower it the compressor continues to run, unless you unplug from the TV or turn off the lights. Is this normal???

After studying it and thinking about it, it appears that this may be normal operation, so that if air leaks off a little on the road, then the compressor will put more air back into the bags.

Could any of those that own these trailers please chime in?

Thanks Chris

I have an ultimate trailer from 2015. Yes it is perfectly normal. It is designed to ensure you have air going to the shocks if any should leak out while towing. You simply unhook the electrical connection from the tow vehicle before you lower the trailer to the ground. Enjoy your new trailer. It is the best one I have found and I have used a few others. Be Happy
