Q about Auto Suspension

My passenger side rear suspension keeps switching while driving by itself. I'm guessing its bad wiring? If I were to cut the wires to the controler on the shock towers what would happen?

Most people will tell you that the AAS is a waste of time. They're going to say that you need new struts anyway and you should get the more affordable aftermarket performance units Vs. the OEM replacements.
They're right.
Now, to answer your question. You could make sure all your struts are at the same setting and disconnect the actuators on top. That's easy and won't cause you any trouble. It's important to be certain they're all at the same setting (assuming the adjustments work) because well...you get the point, right?

Since they are worn the best way will be to bounce on the car and turn the tab in the top of eacy strut until they bounce the same.
