Cancelling magneride

[ukrkoz]

OK, I read posts and articles and all the wisdoms.
Just to make sure. I buy aftermarket front shocks and magneride cancellation kit, which is 2 resistors plugged into the OEM harness, install new shocks - and that's it? No fool messages?

What are you going to do about the rear, as those shocks are also Magneride?

Rears are air ride, so far, aftermarket holds. New shocks with bags and compressor. I got Dorman magneride new shocks in the front and they suck big time. Way too soft. Way. So plan is to kill magneride in the front and put in KYBs. But then I need to cancel magneride sensors. Hence the question.

It’s an 07 Tahoe LT with autoride, right? That means it has the struts filled with hydraulic fluid that are semi active or bi-state. Did you purchase the MagFluid replacements for the 09+ Esky that won’t work with the Autoride module?

This is what I have:

Installed in January, so I have maybe 8 000 miles on them? Now I have Service Suspension as of the last week and "lost communication" code for the front left one.
Either way, right or wrong, they ride like a boat on waves.

Ok, apparently this works:

Installed Sunday 7 am, truck driven normal ever since, no Service Suspension light.

What really pisses me off is that shocks in the front behave the same, connected or not. Now I'm really upset with Doorman. They were not cheapo something at all. I'll do warranty claim.

Just FYI, Doorman struts leaked out after 3600 miles. I had them replaced today with KYB strut plus. PERFECT!
