Section 12 (Suspension - Electronic Level Control): Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1996 Oldsmobile LSS, 1996 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight, and 1996 Buick LeSabre. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The Electronic Level Control (ELC) system automatically raises or lowers vehicle to correct riding height (curb height), compensating for loads added to or removed from vehicle. System consists of a compressor, air dryer, exhaust (vent) solenoid, compressor relay, height sensor, air adjustable struts, pressure limiter and connecting air lines. Air dryer (mounted on compressor) contains moisture-absorbing dry chemical and valves that maintain minimum system air pressure at about 7-14 psi (.49-.98 kg/cm2 ).
