Bunny Lady is having an issue with the rear suspension in her car and I believe it may be the RAS/EVO module. Anyone have an extra they no longer need?

The part number varies...

Fold down the glove box and get us the #

I just sold a few of them on eBay, they are getting hard to find

It's a dual module that runs the Variable Assist Power Steering and the Rear Air Suspension. It's located on a small shelf with another module (forget which) right behind the glove box.

Fold down the glove box, and the module sits on a metal bracket by itself with 2 sets of wires going to it.

To remove it, you have to pry it straight up.

I pry the front with a LARGE flat tip screw driver, then the rear, and then push the front down to get the rear up higher, then rock it up.
That is the easiest way to remove it.
03 and that part number bleeds into some 04s, and 04 is a different part number than 03..

Update: the shop is still trying to figure the exact cause of the RAS not working. May know more on Monday, but thanks for the info on an available module if that turns out to be the case.

Keep me posted please!!!, I too thought I had a RSS module concern but I plugged in a different pre owned one today and no change. I believe I have a break in the harness somewhere not only is the rear suspension totally inop, no error lights even but my climate control head is completely dead too. Wiring is far from my Forte. =(

Sounds like whatever powers of the HVAC is not powering up your control module maybe a bad ground may be a disconnected connector it sounds like it's just missing power

Is the fuse working? Is the fuse blowing out?
If this is the case, check for a short in your rear view mirror wiring.
The monochrome 3 wire plug.

That's what I feared, I hate wiring but I think its time to hit the old wire schematics and see if they share a ground of some kind.

Fuse is good.
