Diagnostic Procedure

Step

Inspection

Action

1
INSPECT FRONT/REAR AUTO LEVELING SENSORS ASSEMBLY CONDITION
•  Inspect the assembly condition of the front/rear auto leveling sensors.
•  Are the front/rear auto leveling sensors assembled correctly?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Assemble the front/rear auto leveling sensors correctly.
After assembling, perform the auto leveling system initial setting, and re-perform the DTC inspection.
•  If the malfunction recurs, go to the next step.
2
INSPECT WIRING HARNESS BETWEEN FRONT/REAR AUTO LEVELING SENSORS AND AUTO LEVELING CONTROL MODULE
•  Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
•  Disconnect the negative battery cable.
•  Disconnect the front/rear auto leveling sensors and auto leveling control module connectors.
•  Inspect the wiring harnesses between front auto leveling sensor connector terminal B and auto leveling control module connector terminal P, and between rear auto leveling sensor connector terminal B and auto leveling control module connector terminal N for the following:
―  Short to power supply
―  Short to body ground
―  Open circuit
•  Are the wiring harnesses normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the wiring harness between the front/rear auto leveling sensors and auto leveling control module.
After replacement, perform the auto leveling system initial setting, and re-perform the DTC inspection.
•  If the malfunction recurs, go to the next step.
3
INSPECT FRONT/REAR AUTO LEVELING SENSORS
•  Remove the front/rear auto leveling sensors.
•  Inspect the front/rear auto leveling sensors.
•  Are the front/rear auto leveling sensors normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the front/rear auto leveling sensors.
After replacement, perform the auto leveling system initial setting, and re-perform the DTC inspection.
•  If the malfunction recurs, go to the next step.
4
PERFORM DTC INSPECTION
•  Connect all the connectors.
•  Connect the negative battery cable.
•  Perform the auto leveling system initial setting.
