Service Ride Control???

Just take out the "RTD" fuse from underneath the hood. You have to disconnect the negative battery terminal first. There are many ways to eliminate the autoride.

I did the swap. I purchased 2 Monroe shocks and installed 3.9 ohm 25watt resistors. ALl works fine!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to do the same to my AutoRide equipped Tahoe. How did you wire in the resistors onto the harness? Which wires did you use? Thanks in advance!!

You must keep the compressor plugged in!

I completely removed the compressor and did the resistor trick on all four corners and all worked out fine.

So, I ran errands today, and the service message never came and suddenly the compressor came back to life. Maybe it was just having a bad couple of days....

It means your rear shocks has a leak and the compressor kept pumping it until it died.(Hence Service ride control) So, now you have to buy rear shocks and a compressor....Easy job but expensive parts....good luck..

WRONG, that's not always the case. Morons like you are why people waste money buying stuff they don't need.

I just bought an 01 Yukon and I had this message on mine and I found a disconnected arm on the front right that connects to the control arm to tell the computer what height it's at. Reconnected it and now it's working with no problems.

I also noticed they put tight bends where the connectors are (just aft of the suspension position sensor or whatever they are called) and I can imagine on some vehicles it could break a wire and that would set it off too so you might end up only needing to splice a wire and if you listen to this guy you would spend all that money and still not have it fixed

which wires do connect resistor to

where or what do you connect resistor to what wire

Not every answer given here is right or wrong each time. Answers are merely suggestions to give people ideas where to start. If you take an answer off this forum and go out and spend $2000 replacing parts on a stranger's suggestion, well that's your problem.

So, shit can the tone.

I have an 02 denali and the shocks and the air shock had holes in them and compressor ran alot. I pulled a fuse from the box under the hood to stop the compressor from running until I had time and $$$ to fix it. After checking around the cheapest I found 2 shock for was $500 a set. I wanted to lower it so I went a different route. I bought a set of Eibach 3" lowering springs for the rear and some belltech standard shocks. Now I tow a camper and a boat so I also purchased a set of air lift coil spring bags for the back. I had some ground force keys I put in and its lowered 2-3 in th front and 3-4 in the rear. It rides good and looks good, and when I pull something I just inflate the bags and level it out. I do have the service ride control light. I wasn't aware there was one on the front. I'm gonna do the resistor trick to the back and see if that fix's anything.

Yukon Denali, 2001

IS there any way to bypass the service ride control without sensors?
I think my air compressor is shot, and I really don't want to replace it.

Graphicideas1 I have the same problem, where do I put the resistor to fix the annoying message in my dash, will this bypass all messages such as broken shock sensor, compressor, etc.... Thanks in advance

Will this eliminate the "service ride controll" message also???
