What means auto ride?
Z55 is termed Autoride, and uses the Electronic Suspension Control (ESC) system to make changes to each of the four shocks in milliseconds as you drive, adjusting the stiffness and handling of the suspension.
How does a GM autoride air suspension compressor work?
The compressor is a positive displacement piston air pump. It draws filtered air through an intake line attached to an underbody rail. The compressed air is then run through a dryer containing a moisture-absorbing chemical that dries the compressed air before it is sent to the shock absorber chambers.
What should I do if my air compressor is not working?
Parts are readily available for most compressors, and with some basic air compressor motor troubleshooting, you should be able to nail down what’s wrong on your own. Is your air compressor not functioning as expected?
What’s the maximum run time for a compressor?
The ESCM also limits the amount of compressor run-time to 255 seconds to protect the compressor components from thermal damage.
How does bypass work on autoride air suspensions?
The bypass allows the CAN Bus signals to pass through the connector to the next module on the loop. No matter the solution, discuss with your customer the pros and cons of each option. By eliminating the Autoride system, you will be changing how the vehicle handles and rides, not to mention altering the towing characteristics.

What are the codes for the Auto Ride compressor?
The codes P0171 (System too lean bank1), P0102 (mass airflow circuit low), P0113 (intake air temperature circuit high), and P0101 (mass airflow circuit range/performance) could be, all related to a faulty MAF (mass airflow) sensor. The TRAC light… Found one black pipe detached when I opened the hood.
How can you tell if a compressor is running properly?
If there’s sufficient pressure to run the system, check the signals to the compressor. If the compressor has an electromagnetic clutch on the front, check to see that voltage is being supplied to the clutch and that it’s applying properly. Next, check for variable voltage to the control solenoid on the back of the compressor.
Where is the fuse slot for the Auto Ride compressor?
It is located in the same fuse block, it is a 10 am fuse number 54. In addition to these two fuses there is the main power fuse for the suspension module. It is in the same fuse block, fuse number 2 and it is a 30 amp fuse. Any of these components, compressor relay, the three fuses and the module could be the problem.
