99 Buick LeSabre ALC system disable

I am trying to diable the ALC for this vehicle to install KYB shocks on the rear.
Hotz28 recomended I remove the fuse for it but neither in the owner's manual or the fuse box cover does it identify that fuse. Any idea which it is.
I am just going to go ahead and install the strut and let the air line hang until I figure out how to disable the ALC system.

Check the right side fuse/breaker block. Take down the hush panel above the passenger's feet--about 5 small taps. On top of it is a listing of the items in the panel which is vertical on the side of the right side of the car above the passenger's toes. I think there's a relay there if there isn't a fuse. Remove the relay and, voila, no ELC. But why don't you keep the ELC and put on leveling struts?

You might try an easier method of disableling the system. Removed the connector at the compressor under the hood.

Well, I've really soured on Monroe and Gabriel and have switched over to using KYB's or Bilstiens. (For various reasons I install a lot of shocks even though I am not an auto shop mechanic.) I don't think Bilstien makes a shock for that car and KYB only makes a non-leveling shock. Besides the KYB came with an extra shim/washer for the strut rod and it is a high pressure gas shock so I don't think it should be a problem with a sagging rear end. And I hope it tightens up the ride a bit over factory.

As for the connector. I tried to locate the compressor under the left front hood but because of the air filter box and some other stuff I couldn't find it. So pulling the fuse seemed most expediant to me. KYB on there website suggests a way to disable but you have to go to Appendix B of their catalog which I downloaded but couldn't find the Appendix B so I wrote them an email requesting their method. Haven't got a reply yet but I just sent the request around noon today.

The compressor is located under the rearend on the 99 LeSabre, not under the hood! BTW, the fuse is in the main fuse panel, under drivers side dash.

Found the compressor. Seems they'd put it in a place where it would be safer from road hazards. Well anyway we pulled the fuse.
The KYB's work really well. Doesn't slosh around like the OEM shocks but they were pretty shot anyway. Took it out for about a 60 mile freeway drive with 5 poeple in the car and it never bottomed out when going over offsets in the pavement. Much tighter in high speed turns, no dipping of the front end. Anyway, I like the new shocks.
