Thank you!

So do I need to pull both:

#55 Micro Relay Electronic Level Control Compressor

#64 Maxifuse Electronic Level Control Compressor/Exhaust

Are just the #64 fuse...?

My take on the naming:

#55 Micro Relay Electronic Level Control Compressor - This appears to be a fuse to protect control over turning the level control system on by the BCM. Pull this fuse and the BCM power to the relay is stopped. If the relay is not enabled then the compressor system doesn't have power.

#64 Maxifuse Electronic Level Control Compressor/Exhaust - This appears to be the fuse between the relay and the compressor. Remove this and no power will get to the compressor regardless of the relay.

Best way to know: Get out a meter and test before and after you remove fuses with ignition on.

My interpretation of the names of the fuses.

I was thinking they meant the compressor near the exhaust, because the compressor is sometimes located above/behind the muffler.

Since you have air struts on the way, and are not sure if the pump works, why don't you get them, install them, then add a load to the trunk, then watch and listen to see if the compressor adjusts the car to level it, if so just get the manual fill kit whenever the compressor dies.

OK... so I pull out Maxifuse #64 (the 3rd one down) - like both the manual and link that was sent to me says... https://fuse-box.info/pontiac/pontia...ses-and-relays

But now when I turned on my radio - instead of saying Monsoon - it now says Bose... and I get no sound.

According to the manual and the site link - the audio amplifier is in Maxifuse #63 the forth fuse down - but there was NO fuse in the forth fuse socket.

I am SO confused!

I think I figured it out - the fuse drawing on the top of the fuse cover - does not match up with the fuse drawings in the manual and in that link.

I put "#64" back in and the radio is back to normal - says Monsoon and works.

So, I am guessing, according to the manual and link - that the fuse right above "#64" - is the compressor fuse - I will check it tomorrow.

However, the new Monroe 90007C air to regular conversion shocks are installed and I do not get any warning messages or lights - so I guess that'* a good thing.
