stokes Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 I am having the struts changed to passive (all four).I have disabled the Service Ride Control message on the DIC with the IPC Override.Does anybody know if this disables the entire system,or just the message on the DIC?My mechanic says we have to buy some kind of harness to disable the system after he changes them.I thought changing the value of IS08 from 8 to zero should disable the entire system.

Scotty Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 I think Boston Suspension comes with a resistor that plugs into each strut connector that fools the system and thereby cancels the error message. Do a search under Boston Suspension, you may be able to purchase that from them. Also, see this information from the old board, Mike http://www.caddyinfo.com/disableccr.htm and this http://www.caddyinfo.com/disable.htm Early on sailors navigated by the stars at night and the North star became the symbol for finding ones way home. Once you know where the Northstar is you can point your ship in the right direction to get home. So the star became a symbol for finding ones way home or more symbolically even finding ones path in life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadillacjeff7777 Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Just thought that I would let everyone know that I just changed the 008 to 000 for IS08 on my 95 SLS and it still says "Service Ride Control". I went back into it to make sure that it saved the adjusted value and it did. 2008 DTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stokes Posted December 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 Just got my car back with the new struts,AC-Delco passive replacements.Didnt need any harness or resistors to "fool" the computer,the IPC Override I mentioned earlier worked okay.Dont know about the '95 but it worked on my '92.

wreldo Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 Stokes, you are correct you can turn off the mesage on the DIC on the 92s. Its's the 93s and above that you need a resistor from the dealer to turn off the message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stokes Posted December 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 As I said he used the Delco factory replacements.Car has about 49,000mls, now rides like it has 49 mls.Wouldnt think a car with that low miles would need new struts already,but I guess holding the weight of the vehicle for 12 years does make them tired.Didnt think they were really too bad until I got them replaced. Well worth the cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Oh sorry I didnt see that, I need to do the struts in my car also, it bottoms out too easily. Glad to hear you have a major improvement. For what its worth, my car since 46,000 miles has also needed them...

cadillacjeff7777 Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Correction on my 95 SLS. After changing that value it suppresses the SRC message while the car is moving. When I am at a dead stop, wither in gear or parked, the SRC message is displayed. 2008 DTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See the above post that states this: Stokes, you are correct you can turn off the mesage on the DIC on the 92s. Its's the 93s and above that you need a resistor from the dealer to turn off the message. You need a resistor, PLEASE look at MY posts above that contain links the answer is there.

cadillacjeff7777 Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 I saw your post but was questioning why it suppressed the message when the car was in motion. Also, on my 93, I was able to just clip a wire on one of the modules in the trucnk and wire in a relay to suppress that message. That wont work on the 95 I take it. 2008 DTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are specific techniques to fix certain years that are not transferable. As you can imagine the suspension has changed each year, my 96 is way different than my 91 was. You need to research the proper procedure to suppress the message for your year and affect it and you will be fine. The link a gave you above provides a fix, additionally you may want to contact Boston Suspensions, they may have an easy solution for you.
