Check to see if you have air to shocks, check air lines for leaks, check pump to see if it is working, check wires for broken wire or if fuse is burnt.

How to remove air suspension pump?

Replacing your Cadillac DeVille DTS electronic shocks with these reliable non-electronic shocks is a simple installation procedure. Cadillac air suspension fails because of rubber dry rotting, and then leaking. Your air suspension compressor will eventually fail because of this. Cadillac shocks in the front fail because of the seals in the Cadillac shock wearing down over time. They eventually leak, losing its dampening ability needed for a safe and smooth ride. Try cadillac dealership for a little more info.

1997 cadillac deville 4 door sedan can you replace factory rear air shocks with good ol' after market air shocks ( these are the ones that you yourself can adjust the ride height by putting air into them)...

You can, but they won't adjust like your factory ones (automatically) Lots of folks replace w/aftermarket shocks instead of depending on factory units.

My 1986 cadillac deville cranks over but wont start what could it be?

It should be either no Spark or no Fuel.
Possible causes: Out of gas, no oil pressure, faulty oil pressure switch, Bad fuel-pump, fuel-pump relay, needs tune-up, defective ignition control module, wrong air/fuel ratio, defective IAC valve or EGR valve.
Other causes: Wrong timing, bad compression, or clogged CAT.

Cant get air ride system to work. already replaced air pump and leveling switch. have power to both. on a 1995 cadillac deville.

This may sound stupid but are the correct shocks and struts for air ride on it. I had a guy bring in his caddy with the same problem and the guy he bought it off of didn't want to pay for the expensive shocks and instead went with a cheaper pair without air capabilities. I put the right ones on and problem solved.

1997 CADDT DEVILLE-----SHOCKS

You can spend half that money and go with a non air conversion kit from Strutmasters. With these air rides its not for sure that by changing the air shock that you will fix your car. If you car has cracks in the air lines that can cause a big issue too. When we replaced the ride on my moms Deville, it was an easy switch to this non air conversion kit. No more low rider!

Changing rear air shocks

yes u can, u will need one of suncore industries kits ($539.00) to do the conversion to standard shock strut system, u will also need the relay kit. Call them before u buy.
