2005 Escalade 6.0 Electronic Shock connections

 Cadillac Escalade

Electrical connections to and from the shocks. The have been changed to just air shocks and I’m going back to the auto ride Z55 & don’t know where the connector’s are coming from. They might be there but don’t know. Are the front shocks the same? I don’t see a air connection on shocks



It looks like just the two shocks in the rear will be air shocks used by the automatic leveling control compressor.

Electronic Suspension Control

The Electronic Suspension Control (ESC)/Real Time Damping (RTD) system, is fully automatic and uses a computer controller to continuously monitor vehicle speed, wheel to body position, lift/dive and steering position of the vehicle. The controller then sends signals to each damper to independently adjust the damping level. The ESC/RTD system consists of a control module, four dampers and four position sensors.

The ESC/RTD system has an integrated Automatic Level Control (ALC) system. The ALC consists of the rear automatic level control dampers and the automatic level control air compressor. The ESC/RTD system also interacts with the Tow/Haul switch. When engaged, the Tow/Haul mode will provide additional control of the dampers.
