I was just driving on the highway for 8+ hours when all of a sudden my truck started pogo-stick-ing up and down at every slight bump in the road. I thought maybe i had hit a bad stretch of road, but no other cars around me seemed to be bobbing up and down like me so i kept driving another 5 min or so until i could safely pull over.
when i got out, i saw the truck was all the way lowered - basically sitting on the wheel wells. I immediately thought i had a leaking globe, but when i checked the AHC fluid level, i saw that ALL of the fluid was in the reservoir (well above the max line). the dash said the truck was in Normal height mode so i tried raising it to H: nothing happened, i tried lowering it to L: nothing happened. I was in the middle of bfe texas on a sunday night and my heart sank. finally, maybe 10 sec after i had pressed the height adjust button, the truck raised itself back to normal operating height and everything was good and i made it home.
what tf could have caused this? a pump on the fritz that just needed a reset? i now don't feel comfortable taking my truck on road trips.
