I'm doing this for Pops, so here goes.
He has a 88 Park Ave and the suspension is bottomed out, I haven't looked to see if there is a fuse blown or if the compressor for the system is faulty. If anyone has clues to were I can find the fuse for this or anything that would help please tell me cause my toyota is taking up my time, so much I can't look into Dad's car.
Thanks Folks

Dynaride is a truly evil thing on a car since it is a PITA to fix. The fuse panel is located behind the light controls on the dash. There are two black knobs on the side of the das on the drivers side that you spin to release the panel. The inside of the panel should have a label of what fuse is what.

Your problem is one of four things: the compressor is bad, there is an air leak in the lines/air bladders, the autolevel control is bad, or you have an electical connection fault.

The most likely would be a leak or a bad autolevel control. If this is the case, you would be better off to replace the dynaride system with regular shocks/struts.

Are you sure, the car has the ALC option? Do the rear struts have air bladders? Usually, if you have leaking air bladders, the compressor fuse will blow due to excessive run time. If the fuse is blown and you replace it, you may here the compressor running and gain a false sense of security thinking all is well, until the fuse blows again. The only solution is to replace the ALC struts with new ones.

A little more info on the "dynaride" and the "ALC option" in the link below.

I replaced all 4 struts on my car a while back. Did the labor myself. For some detailed details on the procedure, check out my thread
