SUSPENSION CONTROL: AIR SUSPENSION SYSTEM: C1762: Continuous Electric Current to Exhaust Solenoid
C1762 - Continuous Electric Current to Exhaust Solenoid

DESCRIPTION

The exhaust valve built into the height control compressor assembly opens to discharge compressed air from the pneumatic cylinders into the atmosphere according to the signal from the suspension control ECU.





INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
- Before performing troubleshooting, inspect the connectors of related circuits.
- If DTC C1782 (Power Source Voltage Malfunction) is output at the same time, perform troubleshooting for C1782 first C1782.
- Before replacing the suspension control ECU, perform all of the following again: 1) symptom simulation How To Proceed With Troubleshooting; 2) DTC inspection Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes; and 3) Techstream inspection (Data List or Active Test) Scan Tool Testing and Procedures. If no malfunctions are found in other areas, replace the suspension control ECU.
- If the suspension control ECU is replaced, the vehicle height offset calibration and registration of vehicle identification information must be performed Calibration and Registration)
PROCEDURE

1. CUSTOMER PROBLEM ANALYSIS

(a) Ask the customer about the vehicle and usage conditions when the DTC was stored.

HINT
DTC C1762 can be stored under unusual vehicle or usage conditions.





NEXT -- Continue to next step.

2. CHECK DTC

(a) Clear the DTC Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

(b) Start the engine and wait for 3 minutes or more.

(c) Select luggage mode.

(d) Select HI mode.

(e) Check the DTC Reading and Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes.

Result:





C -- GO TO DTC CHART Air Suspension System

B -- END (C1762 WAS OUTPUT DUE TO UNUSUAL VEHICLE OR USAGE CONDITION)
A -- Continue to next step.

3. INSPECT AIR TUBE (AIR TUBE FOR CLOG)

(a) Inspect the air tubes for clogs Suspension Control System.

OK:

No clogs are found in the air tubes.

NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE AIR TUBE
OK -- Continue to next step.

4. INSPECT HEIGHT CONTROL VALVE NO. 1

(a) Turn the engine switch off.

(b) Disconnect the height control valve No. 1 connector.





(c) Measure the resistance according to the values in the table below.

Standard resistance:

(d) Check the front RH valve.

(1) Connect a positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 3 (RH+) and a negative (-) lead to terminal 2 (E).

(2) Check the operating sound of the height control valve No. 1.

OK:

It makes an operating sound (click).

(e) Check the front LH valve.

(1) Connect a positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 1 (LH+) and a negative (-) lead to terminal 2 (E).

(2) Check the operating sound of the height control valve No. 1.

OK:

It makes an operating sound (click).

NG -- REPLACE HEIGHT CONTROL VALVE NO. 1
OK -- Continue to next step.

5. INSPECT HEIGHT CONTROL VALVE NO. 2

(a) Turn the engine switch off.

(b) Disconnect the rear height control valve No. 2 connector.





(c) Measure the resistance according to the values in the table below.

Standard resistance:





Text in Illustration





(d) Check the rear RH valve.

(1) Connect a positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 3 (RH+) and a negative (-) lead to terminal 2 (E).

(2) Check the operating sound of the height control valve No. 2.

OK:

It makes an operating sound (click).

(e) Check the rear LH valve.

(1) Connect a positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 1 (LH+) and a negative (-) lead to terminal 2 (E).

(2) Check the operating sound of the height control valve No. 2.

OK:

It makes an operating sound (click).

NG -- REPLACE HEIGHT CONTROL VALVE NO. 2
OK -- Continue to next step.

6. INSPECT HEIGHT CONTROL COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY (EXHAUST VALVE)

(a) Turn the engine switch off.

(b) Disconnect the exhaust valve connector.





(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard resistance:





Text in Illustration





(d) Inspect if the exhaust valve is stuck:

(1) Connect a positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 2 (B) and a negative (-) lead to terminal 1 (L).

(2) Check the operating sound of the exhaust valve.

OK:

It makes an operating sound (click).

NG -- REPLACE HEIGHT CONTROL COMPRESSOR ASSEMBLY Removal
OK -- Continue to next step.

7. INSPECT PNEUMATIC W/TUBE TANK ASSEMBLY (LOW PRESSURE TANK VALVE)

(a) Turn the engine switch off.

(b) Disconnect the low pressure tank valve connector.





(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard resistance:





Text in Illustration





(d) Inspect if the low pressure tank valve is stuck :

(1) Connect a positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 2 (B) and a negative (-) lead to terminal 1 (L).

(2) Check the operating sound of the low pressure tank valve.

OK:

It makes an operating sound (click).

NG -- REPLACE PNEUMATIC W/TUBE TANK ASSEMBLY

OK -- REPLACE SUSPENSION CONTROL ECU
