Damping Force Controlling Condition Check

DAMPING FORCE CONTROLLING CONDITION CHECK





(a) Using SST, connect terminals Ts and E1 of DLC1.
SST 09843-18020
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON.

HINT: In this condition, the damping force control actuator position becomes 1 position.

(c) Starting from the above mentioned position, as the brake pedal is depressed, the damping force control actuator position increases (1 -> 2 -> 3 -> ... 15 -> 16). At this time, bounce the vehicle and check that the shock absorber is becoming harder.

HINT:
- To hold the damping force control actuator at a specific position, adjust it to the position using the above mentioned procedure then increase the vehicle speed to over 5 km/h (3 mph).
- After that the damping force control actuator position does not change until the ignition switch is turned OFF.
- If the damping force control actuator does not operate, inspect the damping force control actuator circuit and suspension control ECU.
