Diagnostic Procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
INSPECT AUTO LEVELING SENSOR CONNECTOR AND TERMINALS
•  Switch the ignition to off.
•  Disconnect the auto leveling sensor connector.
•  Inspect the connector and terminals (corrosion, damage, pin disconnection).
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the connector or terminals, then go to Step 7.
No
Go to the next step.
2
INSPECT AUTO LEVELING CONTROL MODULE CONNECTOR AND TERMINALS
•  Disconnect the auto leveling control module connector.
•  Inspect the connector and terminals (corrosion, damage, pin disconnection).
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace the connector or terminals, then go to Step 7.
No
Go to the next step.
3
INSPECT AUTO LEVELING SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND
•  Verify that the auto leveling sensor and auto leveling control module connectors are disconnected.
•  Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side) and body ground:
―  Auto leveling sensor terminal A
―  Auto leveling sensor terminal B
―  Auto leveling sensor terminal C
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to ground, then go to Step 7.
No
Go to the next step.
4
INSPECT AUTO LEVELING SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO POWER SUPPLY
•  Verify that the auto leveling sensor and auto leveling control module connectors are disconnected.
•  Switch the ignition to ON.
•  Measure the voltage at the following terminals (wiring harness-side):
―  Auto leveling sensor terminal A
―  Auto leveling sensor terminal B
―  Auto leveling sensor terminal C
•  Is there any voltage?
Yes
Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible short to power supply, then go to Step 7.
No
Go to the next step.
5
INSPECT AUTO LEVELING SENSOR
•  Inspect the auto leveling sensor.
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Replace the auto leveling sensor, then go to Step 7.
No
Go to the next step.
6
INSPECT AUTO LEVELING SENSOR CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
•  Verify that the auto leveling sensor and auto leveling control module connectors are disconnected.
•  Switch the ignition to off.
•  Inspect for continuity between the following terminals (wiring harness-side):
―  Auto leveling control module terminal D—Auto leveling sensor terminal A
―  Auto leveling control module terminal E—Auto leveling sensor terminal B
―  Auto leveling control module terminal M—Auto leveling sensor terminal C
•  Is there continuity?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit, then go to the next step.
7
VERIFY TROUBLESHOOTING COMPLETED
•  Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors.
•  Perform the DTC inspection.
•  Is the same DTC present?
Yes
Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the auto leveling control module.
Go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
8
VERIFY THAT NO OTHER DTCs ARE PRESENT
•  Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
No
DTC troubleshooting completed.
