I recently bought a 2004 Cadillac Escalade and the Service Tire Monitor keeps coming on as well as the Service Ride Control. I was wondering what this could mean and how do I go about fixing it. Will this be an expensive fix? Thank you!

you may need to reset the Tire Pressure Monitoring System.... were the tires rotated recently??? open the driver door... on the door jam (not the door) it should have a label for what the tire pressures call for.... im not sure what they are, but for example it may say 35lbs in the front tires, and 40lbs in the rear tires... if you rotate the tires, this throws the computer off..... as far as service ride control, that has airshocks in it... if you dont disarm them before lifting the vehicle, it will throw that... the switch to turn off the compressor should be in the back, on the driver side.... i may be wrong, but in most cases, thats where it is... open the back hatch, the switch should be there... if im wrong, im sure another tech will correct me...
