    @reelheavy thank you for update.
    I see you have top cover out. Ask your mechanic to change O-rings and the piston inside range cylinder. it's not expensive and it's half to one hour labor. Do not put cover back without doing it.
     
    jsnell and spsauerland Thank this.

    Excessive moisture in air system killed your the air module. If you cut it you may see what is happened inside...

    It's inside of top cover. see the first picture you have posted . Round area in bottom side of top cover, where above parts go in. That's the range cylinder.
