Default Air Struts
I see the link for the Techinfo for the Computer Comand Ride and how you can troubleshoot if your shocks are bad. How can I do this without the buttons? I have air ride but hpw can I troubleshoot mine?

The old fashioned bounce test. Grab the corner of the car and get it bouncing real good. Then let go. It should return to place after 1 1/2 bounces.
