Well I had a similar problem with my Navigator the compressor would run until the fuse finally blew. I replaced the fuse not long after that the compressor went out the problem was I had an air bag leaking. After searching around the price's they were trying to charge me were ridiculous. I ended up buying a conversion kit for it and saved a ton of money. My Navi. rides as good if not better than it did with the airbags on it. I got the kit from strutmasters they had great service there and have helped me with any questions I've had. I would suggest them to anybody having problems with air suspension especially if you want to save a little money..... Heres a link for them www.strutmasters.com hope this helps you out some.
Sounds like a leak in the suspension airbags. The fuse blows because the compressor overheats trying to keep up with the leak.
On a 2000 Lincoln LS : The FRONT suspension is a strut type suspension , so there are ( NO ) upper ball joints
The sir suspension switch should be located in the front passenger wheel well. It should be there on a Lincoln Continental and most other vehicles with air suspension.
You have a leak in your air suspension.
The compressor is located on the front passenger side of the engine compartment just in front of the battery. (man, have we had problems with the whole suspension system!)

Probably one or both of the front air shocks or the compressor.
The general location is on the passenger side between the front tire and front bumper.
