I have serviced these systems for years and the most common problem is leaking air shock, and this inturn will burn your pump up. The best thing IMO is to replace your air shocks now before it ruins your compressor, if it hasn't already. You can climb under the car and spray soapy water on the shocks and the leaks will be visible. Another alternative is to put a couple of pumps of tire stop leak in each one and this will help for quite a while, I had a 91 and by doing that I got another year out of it before haveing to replace them.

2009 crv check fuel cap

Go to the parts store where you bought the cap. Sometimes the code clears on it's own and sometimes you need to have it reset. If this is not an option disconnect the negative battery cable for a minute. Just as a warning, if you disconnect the battery you will have to reprogram most all of your electronics.

Service ride control

Hi there:The service ride control light being on is letting you know the system has detected a fault.This can be caused by a defective esc module or a bad compressor. need to have codes pulled out of the electronic suspension control module.


Need some specific dealer tools in order to reset it or solve it.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.
Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

What does it mean when the dashboard reads gear indicator fault, service ride control and change oil soon even after i just got it changed along with service vehicle thats what keeps popping up on my dash...

Off the top of my head the following may be the case for your 1995 Cadillac Deville based on my 1997 Cadillac Deville knowledge:

gear indicator fault- has to do with the shift lever sensor down on the column by the feet,

service ride control- has to do with the air ride shocks in the back or the compressor in the front or the ride control height,

change oil soon- has to do with not resetting the % oil life (just press reset button for a few seconds when the oil % life is displayed)

Hope this helps you out.

How to get rid of ''Service Now''!

Note: the Service Reminder Indicator displays 3 messages: OEL, IN 01, and IN 02. These display to alert the driver to follow the items listed under the manufacturer's service interval. To reset the message displays, turn the ignition switch on. Press and hold the odometer reset button "A" located below the speedometer. Turn off the ignition while holding the button. "OEL" will display on the indicator. Press and hold the lower digital clock reset button "B" until five dashes appear in the display. If needed, press the odometer reset button until "IN 01" appears and then press the clock reset button until five dashes appear. If needed, press the odometer reset button until "IN 02" is displayed and then press the clock reset button until five dashes appear. To exit reset mode, turn the ignition switch on and when "IN 01" appears, turn the ignition switch off

Just got a dash warning "SERVICE RIDE CONTROL."

On second thought I understand you meant the indicator said actually "service ride". This can apply to shocks, the air pump that levels the car, possible low tire and such. Again, a mechanic can read the exact problem with a diagnostic computer. Just keep on driving until you get tired of seeing the warning. Oh yes, the mechanic can reset the car computer and make the annoying warning go away.
