C0662

DTC C0662 or C0663 (W/F45)








Circuit Description W/F45
The Automatic Level Control exhaust solenoid valve is switched ON or OFF by the Electronic Suspension Control (ESC) module. The ESC module provides a ground whenever exhaust activity is required and during a head-relief sequence which occurs before each compressor start-up. This drive output from the ESC module is continually monitored to determine if the voltage level agrees with the commanded state.

Conditions for Running the DTC
The ignition is ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
DTC C0662
The following conditions must be present to set the DTC:
^ The ESC module detects voltage less than a preset value in the exhaust solenoid control circuit during an exhaust solenoid valve OFF state test.
^ The fault is detected during three consecutive ignition cycles, or during the same ignition cycle after clearing the DTC with a scan tool.

DTC C0663
The following conditions must be present to set the DTC:
^ The ESC module detects voltage greater than a preset value in the exhaust solenoid control circuit during an exhaust solenoid valve ON state test.
^ The fault is detected during three consecutive ignition cycles, or during the same ignition cycle after clearing the DTC with a scan tool.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
^ ALL rear leveling activity for the remainder of the ignition cycle will be disabled.
^ The SERVICE SUSPENSION SYSTEM message will be displayed.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC
^ The scan tool can be used to clear the DTC.
^ The DTC is saved as history when the ESC module no longer sees an out of range voltage condition in the exhaust solenoid control circuit. The DTC will clear if the fault does not return after 50 consecutive ignition cycles.

Diagnostic Aids
These DTCs are set only by electrical problems with the ELC exhaust solenoid control circuit. Pneumatic blockage problems do not set these DTCs.
A temporary compressor overload, such as high head pressure during a cold start, may cause the ELC fuse to open. This is one possible cause of DTC C0662.

Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
2. Tests for voltage in the ALC exhaust solenoid control circuit.
3. Tests for a short to voltage in the ALC exhaust solenoid control circuit.
4. Tests for voltage in the battery positive voltage circuit of the ALC compressor in order to isolate a short to around or an oven.
