Exdirectory are you able to fix your problem with the Aerosus compressor? I'm on the same boat where my air bags are good (newly replaced), 40A fuse is good, I even swapped a new fuse in but it doesn't fix it.
Now I'm deciding if compressor is next, if yes, where should I get one.

There are many aftermarket options. OEM MSRP is ~$1600, which you can buy online for $1100. I think that's over the top for an air compressor. I ordered one from ebay for $200. I realize that may not last as long as an OEM unit, but this is an easy DIY. Finally, if you really want to make sure your compressor is the issue, you should be able to put 12V across it and test it. If your bags have been recently replaced (which means they were probably leaking for some time) and if your relay is good, it is probably the compressor.

I just installed this $200 compressor and if fired right up: https://www.ebay.com/itm/20419337210...&segname=11050
Also, the fuse was blown. I assume the electric motor had seized (I didn't bother testing it as the fuse should not be blown). So, check that 40 amp fuse. This is a very easy DIY. Don't take it to the dealer for this.
