Circuit/System Description
The Electronic Suspension Control module supplies a 5 V reference signal to each suspension position sensor. The suspension position sensors supply a signal of 0.35-4.75 V to the Electronic Suspension Control module which represents the position between the body and the wheel. The sensors are also grounded through the Electronic Suspension Control module.
Conditions for Running the DTC
* Battery voltage is between 9-16 V.
* Ignition is ON.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
* The DTC is set when the Electronic Suspension Control module measures a position sensor signal less than 0.35 V or greater than 4.75 V for more than 1 s while the vehicle is operated under normal driving conditions.
* The fault is detected during 3 consecutive ignition cycles, or during the same ignition cycle after clearing the DTC with a scan tool.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
* The Electronic Suspension Control module will enter the speed dependent damping mode.
* Both left and right normal force outputs will be set to the default output states.
* The Electronic Suspension Control module sends a message to the instrument panel cluster to display SERVICE RIDE CONTROL message.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive ignition cycles if the condition for the malfunction is no longer present.

Circuit/System Verification
1. Ignition ON.
2. Verify the scan tool Position Sensor Data parameters vary between 0.35-4.75 V while the vehicle is jounced.
• If not within 0.35-4.75 V
Refer to Circuit/System Testing
• If within 0.35-4.75 V
3. All OK.
Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down.
2. Disconnect the harness connector at the affected B152 Suspension Position Sensor.
3. Test for less than 10 ohms between the low reference circuit terminal C and ground.
• If 10 ohms or greater
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K19 Suspension Control Module.
2. Test for less than 2 ohms in the low reference circuit end to end.
• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
• If less than 2 ohms, replace the K19 Suspension Control Module.
• If less than 10 ohms
4. Ignition ON.
5. Test for 4.8-5.2 V between the voltage circuit terminal A and ground.
• If less than 4.8 V
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K19 Suspension Control Module.
2. Test for infinite resistance between the voltage circuit and ground.
• If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
• If infinite resistance
3. Test for less than 2 ohms in the voltage circuit end to end.
• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
• If less than 2 ohms, replace the K19 Suspension Control Module.
• If greater than 5.2 V
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K19 Suspension Control Module, ignition ON.
2. Test for less than 1 V between the voltage circuit and ground.
• If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
• If less than 1 V, replace the K19 Suspension Control Module.
• If within 4.8-5.2 V
6. Verify the scan tool Position Sensor parameter is less than 0.3 V
• If 0.3 V or greater
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K19 Suspension Control Module, ignition ON.
2. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit terminal B and ground.
• If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
• If less than 1 V, replace the K19 Suspension Control Module
• If less than 0.3 V
7. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal B and the voltage circuit terminal A.
8. Verify the scan tool Position Sensor parameter is greater than 4.7 V.
• If less than 4.7 V
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K19 Suspension Control Module.
2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal B and ground.
• If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
• If infinite resistance
3. Test for less than 2 ohms in the signal circuit end to end.
• If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
• If less than 2 ohms, replace the K19 Suspension Control Module.
• If greater than 4.7 V
9. Replace the B152 Suspension Position Sensor.
