Sorry the message was wrong, its not the Suspension which is stuck, its me in repairing it.
That's why it would be very helpful if somebody would have a diagram.
Thanks

ABC

The Problem that i have is = the car is not lifting at all. Pump pressure is ok but none of the valves are responding. I lifted the car by manually energizing each valve separately.

Could be a fault in the ABC control module. You will need StarDiag to verify this.

Thank you very much for the tip, but the Dealership here in Zimbabwe is not very helpful nor do they know how to use the StarDiag. Will see what i can do. Its very sad because its a beautiful car.
