Question replaced autoride shocks and compressor, now getting codes like crazy!

We replaced the air compressor and autoride shocks on our 2007 Avalanche. Used Arnott OEM rebuilt shocks, and a brand new Arnott compressor. Truck has never been this stout! However, now the Service Stabilitrak System error code is showing, and the ABS light is on! No problems with them before, just after we did the shocks and compressor. And I mean right after, as in started the truck to take it for a ride to make sure Autoride was working. As I said, the autoride works great, but, it is showing these codes and the lights are on the dash. Now what can be wrong? Was looking at buying a new Diamond Edition since it is its last year, but, with the luck we have had with this one in the past 1 1/2 years, really think we might wait for the 2014 Silverado to come out.

Default Autoride Service Stabilitrak System Error Code

This is a problem related to the abs located on the frame rail,there's actually one on the left rear and right rear that will inadvertentlydisconnect as the installer replaces the shocks. Below is a copy and paste fromthe Arnott FAQ about it.<o></o>
<o></o>

Iinstalled Arnott's Bilstein shocks (AS-2127, SK-2126, or SK-2487) however, nowmy ABS and Stability Traction control light is on. What do I do?

There’s an ABS sensor along the frame rail near thetop mount on the shock. It is possible that this may be disconnected. If it is,plug it back in and the message should go away.<o></o>

That is a fact, I have the standard shocks and struts, and when I replaced them I did indeed knock the connector loose and got the stabilitrac codes/warnings... checked all my work over and found the loose connection at the top of the frame rail as described...

I just picked up a 2011-LTZ, with 100K miles.
It has the Autoride system. When I go over tracks or certain roads, the truck is rocking like a boat.
How do you troubleshoot the Autoride system, to determine if it is the compressor, shocks, airline, relay???
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you!!!
