PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

The air suspension module uses the standard corporate protocol (SCP) communications network. The air suspension module communicates with the diagnostic tool through the data link connector (DLC). The air suspension module controls the air suspension and the variable assist power steering (VAPS).

The air suspension module is used to monitor and control the VAPS system. The VAPS system controls the level of power assistance available to the driver based on vehicle speed and rate of change in steering position.
