you need to change your slow downs and put a restricker in the line, or run smaller line.

I believe it will do that on any wireless control. The relay holds the valve open for a few seconds which is too much time to hold the switch if you are running 1/2" lines. You won't be able to fine tune the height on the wireless like you can do from the switches in the car.

EDITED: Just read the first post. So your primary switches are from this wireless fob? What happen to the switches that came with the kit?

I'm using the 3 switch ashtray mounted. Can you describe what wireless pad you are using? Can you adjust the height to whatever you like or does by hitting your switches, the car either go up or down and no in between setting? That's what I'm thinking since you have no manual switches inside the car.

I figured that because some of my buddies has wireless switches control from their alarm fobs. (dei) By adding more relays to the alarm, they can use different combo of the alarm buttons to control the air, but the car will only go up or down. No in between since the valves stays open for a few seconds. To ajust it to the height that they want, they must use the switches in side of the car.

im using the wireless box controller it has all the functions up, down, side to side, front, back, and individual wheel but i understand wat ur saying i think that may be the reason the valves dont close quick enough thus i cant really control the height....

IMO wireless switches are for show. They use relays to control the valves. You will need to add some manual switches inside the car to fine tune the height settings. Just leave the setup as is now and ask your installer to add in the ash tray switch and you should be golden.

with the standard kit with 1/2 slow downs and 1/2 line you cant really control it that well i use a three switch system and i also have a dakota remote system.

in the mag i put in smaller slow downs problem i had with them they all dont flow the same so one corner or side would drop faster you can see where im going with that... my next go around will be adjustable i will put them inline so i can adjust the up speed and on the slow down side so i can adjust down speed should work good
