2020 GMC Sierra Denali Duramax 3500HD with Air Lift 5000 Ultimate air bags installed.  Added Air Lift Wireless One 2nd Gen compressor that has the optional "Pink" wire power wire for the engine fuse block.  Says to use a 10amp fuse that is "hot" with key on.  What fuse are you using? (Fuse number if possible)  Thanks for your help.

I picked up 12v accessory power here in the passenger side fuse box. It’s retained accessory power too. Just use a female spade to attach to the lug and I used an inline fuse.

Are you running the optional pink wire to your passenger side fuse block for power with ignition hot?  I have my Wireless One black negative and red positive wired to my battery.  Instructions say to connect "pink" wire to a 10amp fuse block that is hot with "key on".  Guess I'm just confused as to where the "pink" wire actually plugs into with a fuse tap.  Hope that makes sense.

Any pink wire in a gm harness at the uhfb is switched power. Make sure you select a pink wire close to the same gage you are connecting.

Jeff,  Thanks for your photo as it made connecting the pink wire a lot easier to a power source.  I had asked Air Lift Tech Support for any information as to what fuse location to use on the 2020 GM 3500HD trucks.  The reply was why do you want to use the pink wire and don't even bother.  Nice answer.....Not.  Why even have the pink wire with it noted in the installation instructions if it's really of no use.  I ended up drilling a small hole in one of the plastic plugs in the body under the passenger carpet, placing a rubber grommet in the hole with the wire run through it.  I gorilla taped the wire down and zip tied it to a wire bundle.  The rest was easy and it works as advertised with a 10amp fuse wired into the circuit.  Thanks again for your help.

The pink wire really serves no purpose.  I have the same setup and just capped the pink wire.  Here's what the manual says about the pink wire:

 

OPTIONAL Ignition Source Connection

Connect the pink wire to any wire that is active when the ignition is on. This will allow WirelessONE to make adjustments as soon as the ignition is turned on. Otherwise, the system will only activate when the vehicle moves or when woken up by the controller or mobile app. Hardware to connect to the ignition is not included. This is a low-amperage circuit that should be connected to the output side of a 10A or smaller fuse-protected circuit.

Just curious how heavy are you towing. Did your truck squat that much you needed to add air bags?  Haven't towed with mine yet, my old dually did squat a little to much with my new trailer  I was hoping my new truck (2020 3500 Sierra SLT DRW) with 5266Lbs. payload Cap. would do a little better.

36' 5th wheel 2020 Jayco Pinnacle 32RLTS.  I didn't really need to add the air bags as the squat wasn't bad at all.  I just like to have my 5th wheel level when towing if at all possible due to having a RV refrigerator.  Today was actually the first time I hooked up the 5th wheel to my truck.  It took 35psi in the bags to level the trailer.  I will check level again tomorrow after I do some towing to see if the bags need to be adjusted.

The only thing the pink wire does is keeps the pump from adjusting the pressure if the truck is off. Really only matters if you have a leak. I added the air bags on my 2020 srw 3500 because it was bouncing so much while towing my 40’ Raptor. I towed the same trailer with my 2017 srw 3500 With no problems. The helper springs on the 2020 are a lot further away from the bump stops meaning a lot more squat before they kick in.

I know this is off topic but searching for this info and your discussion was close.  Do you know where I can plug in for a small amount of "switch off" power??

      5 Best Slide Down Gameplay Tips! 

      By lanaderay · Posted

      Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!

      Why I Recommend a Desiccant Air Dryer for Cleaner, Drier Compressed Air

      By lingyuair · Posted

      If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w

      I took a 12 second video on my iphone but the file is too big to upload. I will have to figure out how to extract the audio or just do another start with an audio recording.
