hi there, i have a 2006 armada LE, build date 03/06. recently, two problems have pissed me off and turned me into an alcoholic. seriously, i have never had so much to drink when trying to fix a problem. i am very mechanically inclined, so im a bit frustrated, to say the least. i hope you all can help!
Auto Leveling Suspention-
where do i start? this has been a problem with armada owners for YEARS. my truck seems to be sitting low. i have never heard the compressor kick on since i have owned it. i took it to the dealer, and they suggested i start by replacing the heigh sensor. i think that is bs. i got home and removed the sensor, started the truck, and tried fooling the pump to kick on. nothing. while this could be a failed sensor, i don't think so. i think there is a leak in one of the air lines, the pump ran constantly, burnt out, and now im left with a dead pump and a leak somewhere.
my question is this. what do i need to do to properly diagnose and repair this issue? i have checked the fuse in the cabin, relay behind the battery, and tried to fool the pump to nothing. i have a cypher and will scan it next time i have a chance to see if there are any error codes for the suspension.
Air Conditioning-
i have navigation, so i have the dials as follows: driver temp | fan speed | pass temp. all 3 of them have serious issues. i dont know if there is a problem with the knob, or the ac control unit itself. they are supposed to be spring loaded, but barely work anymore. i have a hard time in the winters getting the car heated and in the summer cooling it. what do i need to do to fix this?
thanks alot!
