hey everyone, noticed the rear of the car not pumping up like it should. The compressor does not run for more then 5 seconds at a time, and that's only when you first key on after about a minute. I believe this is the air replenishment cycle that its performing. Regardless of added or removed weight it does not kick on after that first 5 second cycle. is this a sign of a bad level sensor?
also if I wanted to just temporarily ground a wire to pump up the back to keep the wheels from rubbing which colour should I be looking for on the pump connectors there's two!

Look at the right rear suspension. The sensor arm could have gotten knocked off the little ball stud in the control arm.

If you pull back the carpeting into the right side of the trunk, near the back seat, there's a valve. Disconnect the wire harness from it, then turn on the inflater by the trunk latch. It'll pump the struts up this way.

sensor arm is attached, I disconnected it and moved it so it thought it needed to be pumped up and there compressor didn't turn on at all. the level sensor must be gone.
also neither of my lss's had an inflater button, i believe that was a bonneville specific thing, if it was that easy i wouldn't have asked lol.
There is also no harness in the trunk by the back seat only thing in that area is the big power wire for my amp.

Oh, I didn't know the inflater didn't apply to the Olds. So I guess you won't have that valve.

where in mississauga are you - I am at mavis and Queen/7

found the elc relay behind the glovbox jumped pins 3-5, compressor works perfectly, struts leak out within one drive so those are getting changed before winter!

Im at cawthra and the qew @ 96 ssei
