Re-mounting air suspension sensor?

[thorslund]

Hi!

I just got a notice on the DIC on my Avalanche -07 LTZ about the suspensions system needing service. I started searching for mechanical issues and noticed that one of the sensors (driver side back) had come loose. Has anyone re-mounted these and know the procedure and/or parts needed to do this?

I've attached a picture of the part (yes, it was a dirty road ): https://photos.app.goo.gl/g34dt7mjfFTG9PY59

Thank you!

Looks like the rust monster got you and ate the bracket, you will need to fabricate a new bracket or new sensor with bracket, then find a way to fix it to the frame.

Thanks for quick reply ronthehandymanga! That was what I thought. It would be great to have a picture or a drawing of the bracket. Maybe it's possible to make a DIY from a 3D-printer or something simple out of metal. It's hard to tell from this picture if the bracket is a separate piece of part of the sensor itself -> https://www.gmpartsdirect.com/oem-p...uY2hlJnk9MjAwNyZ0PWx0eiZlPTUtM2wtdjgtZmxleA==

Can you look at the other side as an example?
Also, see attached for the service manual.

Thank you BainMan for the extract of the service manual. I will have a look on the other side. But it looks like the bracket is detachable with three screws - IF the rust hasn't been to evil..
