bad rear shocks or compressor?

Post by jojo51592 »

I just got back to college and a few days after unloading stuff out of my car I noticed it wasn't sitting right. The next day i noticed it was a little lower and noticed the compressor didn't kick on... I plan on replacing shocks anyway this weekend, but where should I start checking for the compressor? This is in a 2000 bonne sle

Start by checking the fuse and relay in the rear fuse block. You can swap the relay with another one. Please see this thread for a full description http://www.pontiacbonnevilleclub.com/fo ... 39867.html
