Usually that means you have a problem with the ride height sensors not opening or stuck ooened. It is a common problem for GM cars and trucks.

I'm not sure how you know if your fuses are bad. How do I know? How do I know if its the ALC that is bad?

Fuses have a little u shape piece of metal between the posts. If a short occurs, the center u shape piece will be melted.However if the comp works fuse is probably ok. Possible the ride sensor on the rear end disconnected or damaged .if shop did the replacement take it back to them.if you did it you are going to have to retrace your steps to see if something got missed

How Do I Fix Service Ride Control warning on Dash, And what is it?

  • The magnetic ride control system senses speed and oscillation of suspension and adjusts shock dampening for a comfortable ride. If a shock is bad or the suspension sensors are damaged in anyway the system deactivates and does to a default setting, and the warning comes on. Did you hit any real bad potholes? or probably just wear and tear.. You need to have your suspension system checked.. shocks, control arms, alignment, etc.

What to do for 2003 Denali air bag, service ride control light flashing

I replaced my shocks with better quality... And now my Service Ride Control is also on. The mechanic said the truck is looking for the electronic switch on the previous shocks. There is a switch they can install to over ride the warning. Don't know if you had new shocks installed, but thought I would mention it.

Had shocks replaced at a ntb service center all four of them, also four new tires now the ride is not smooth as before,plese help

Tire centers tend to over inflate tires. You probably have become accustomed to a softer ride. Try lowering tire pressures a couple of PSI but be careful, to low a pressure will affect handling. The factory tire pressures are in your drivers door sticker.

I had the suspension on my 1996 Cadillac DeVille converted from air to coils to the tune of $1686.95 and used bushings for $398. I asked them to stop my car from bouncing/sliding when I hit bumps, car...

ALL YOU NEED NEW AIR SHOCKS. THAT WHY CAR IS BOUNCING.IF YOUR AIR RIDE CONTROL LIGHT ON YOU HAVE PROBLEM IN THE ROAD SENSING SUSPENSION CONTROL OR THE AIR COMPRESSOR NOT WORKING. YOU PAID THEM TO FIX CAR IF THEY CANT. GET MONEY BACK TAKE CAR TO DEALERSHIP. VECHICLES LIKE CADILLACS MERCEDES BMW JAGUAR VOLKSWAGON AND VOLVO THESE ARE SPECIAL CARS NOT EVERY BODY CAR SERVICE OR WORK ON THEM. THEY ARE EXPENSIVE HAVE HI TECH PCM ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEMS ON BOARD.

Service ride control

It's time to replace the rear shocks. There expensive like $250.00 and up each and if your not going to be towing, most people replace them with a good set of shocks and not the factor OEM air shock which you have for the auto ride height system. If your going to just buy and good set of normal gas shocks. Pull the fuse to     the auto ride system so the light on the dash is off.
Good luck and hope this helps. The auto ride system was there for towing heavy trailers to keep the ride hight. The rear suspension is actually soft so you have a soft ride and the shock keeps it from bouncing. If your not towing heavy or carring heavy loads, you should be fine with a conventional gas shocks and you may find it better. I found the Monroe Reflex shocks to be more stable then the OEM around corners and highway driving.

Service ride control

The fuse is called RTD 30 amp under the hoodfuse box. That is for the Air Compressor.

Parts.com has the best price for:

Shock W/auto level control - 1500 series

and under
electrical:
then ride control components
then compressor
