Bought a compressor pump from Haro on here, thinking mine was bad, but it wasn't.. Is there a tech page or Diagram on this that I missed? If its electrical, im assuming its a PITA to fix.. If not , Where should I look for signs for causes of the issue

does the compressor come on when the car is on? have you disconnected the leveling sensor and tried to make the pump come on to see if the rear shocks will inflate? if not thats where i would start. IF the pump does come on then you may have a leak in your air lines which will not allow them to pump up.. if that were the case i would think the pump would run constant. worse case senario i would jump power to the pump and see if it inflates... it may be a level sensor issue.

Thanks bud, I checked the leveling sensor , which looks pretty cheap from the get go.. When I key the car on, no the pump will not turn on, nor do I hear any leaks anywhere.. Is there a how to, on this? I just pretty much want to go through every part of the leveling system to find this issue.. I have 2 working pumps , and nothing happens with either.

If you don't need the pump, return it, I'll refund you. I have plenty of demand for them.

Have you checked the ELC fuse and relay in the rear fuse box?

No I know... but if you don't need it, just telling you an option.

I bought a pair of these:

and completely eliminated the air system all together, works fantastic! Well worth the money.

I had a similar problem with my 2004 SE back in March. I replaced the fuse, relay, the level sensor, and the pump with no success. Turned out that the Rear Integration Module died. Open your trunk and look at the back of your back seat. There will be a small module along the upper left portion of the back seat.

Here's a link to the thread I had about it: http://www.pontiacbonnevilleclub.com/fo ... 31558.html
