Candidate cause (the documents say what to do)
Autoride (Z55) Service Ride Control / Service Suspension System message
On 2009 or earlier vehicles a Service Suspension System message may appear and the rear ride height may be incorrect.
The Electronic Suspension Control module will have DTC C0696 or C0711 set.
How to tell
C0580C0696C0711Service Ride Control / suspension message
What to do
- The compressor assembly may need to be removed to see whether the wiring is pinched between the compressor and the frame.
- The module checks level-system pressure at start-up and runs the compressor to add air to the shocks if it is below 10 psi (69 kPa).
- Repair the damaged or shorted circuits and reposition the wiring so it is not damaged again when the compressor is installed.
- The sensor is not serviced separately; install a complete air filter, dryer and sensor assembly.
- For a Service Ride Control message with DTC C0580, replace the right front shock absorber solenoid connector and install new A/C suction and auxiliary evaporator hoses.
- The jumper harness is included with the complete air filter, dryer, and sensor assembly PN 22964558; vehicles built in May, 2012 and later do not require the jumper harness and use PN 22941807.
Caution: Do not replace the complete air compressor assembly for this concern.
What is needed
- Parts and materials
- Air filter, dryer and sensor assembly PN 22964558 (includes the jumper harness)
- Right front shock absorber solenoid connector (for a Service Ride Control message with C0580)
- New A/C suction and auxiliary evaporator hoses (for a Service Ride Control message with C0580)
- Auto leveling compressor air inlet filter and hose assembly PN 22197160 (for condition 3)

A cause or a result a complaint states is the owner’s view or what a dealer told them, not an established fact.
Put together by FaultCrate from public records and technical documents. The cause and the repair are for the workshop to decide with the vehicle in front of it. Counts are records, not failure rates.
