Default 95 ride control rear actuator access

Before I dig in tomorrow, can you get at the rear actuators to check them without removing the shock?

The service light is on (again) and fronts look good. Tomorrow I will pull the codes and start disassembly/beer drinking, if required. :cheers:

Nope. Jack up the rear and remove a tire. There are two bolts that hold the top of the shock onto the frame. Remove both of these along with the bottom bolt and ease the shock out. Then you can check the actuator. If disconnecting it, make sure it does not slip back into the frame.

why take the shock off? You can just undo two bolts, slide shock towards the outer car body, and remove actuator. Hope it works out for you.
