Welp, don't have Star.

Didn't know if you could pull a plug/fuse.

Try this keep on connecting and disconnecting the battery. Each time you do this a little air will come out of the strut. This is not the correct way to do it but it may be the only other option if you don't have star.
If you are in Houston I have star das

you can jack up the car on all 4 corners then unplug the airmatic pump and open the door a few times until the struts deflate, then put the car back on the ground. Stupid idea to do it IMO, but it'll work.

Came home and the car appears to have lowered itself.

Not good.

Looked at the car and thought, I'm hungover, but that doesn't look right.
