Where to find a new ELC sensor?

[Loekee75]

Does anyone know where I can find a new level control sensor online (same for 91-95' models with ELC) I found it at GMpartsdirect.com, the total cost with shipping was over 300 bucks! I know rockauto is a good site, but they don't seem to carry this item. Thanks in advance for the input!

For less than $10 I'd put a manual toggle on it, just my :$ .02

I'm replacing the sensor in my 92' PA, the 91' LeSabre I have doesn't have ELC. All other components have tested good, including the relay, compressor air dryer/ valves etc... when I jumped the sensor harness the system worked. I was considering the junkyard, however I didn't want to go through with having to lift 2 of the only ELC equipped vehicles in their lot (we're getting tons of rain!) and then finding that the one from the yard is bad, too. Wrightz28, if I did add a toggle, how long would you think I should keep the system running before switching it off?

Only way I could really see as accurate would be to load up the trunk and have a couple of average size volunteers sit in the back set and time how long it takes to get to the ride height with all the weight.

That will atleast tell you how long it takes under load. Otherwise I'd try and set it manually for short bursts at a time, say 30 seconds, until it looks right.
