3

Inspect height control valve (Gate solenoid valve, Leveling solenoid valve) or
height control compressor (Exhaust solenoid valve).

When using hand–held tester:
PREPARATION:
(a)

Connect the hand–held tester to the DLC3.

(b)

Turn the ignition switch ON, and push the hand–held tester main switch ON.

(c)

Select the item ”LEVEL SOL REAR”, ”GATE SOL REAR” in the ACTIVE TEST, and operate it with the
hand–held tester.

Vehicle Condition / Test Details

Diagnostic Note

LEVEL SOL REAR

Turn leveling solenoid valve / ON or OFF

Operation sound of solenoid (clicking sound) can

be heard

GATE SOL REAR

Turn gate solenoid valve / ON or OFF

Operation sound of solenoid (clicking sound) can

be heard

HINT:
The exhaust solenoid valve cannot be tested in ACTIVE TEST.
CHECK:
(a)

Check whether the solenoid makes a sound.

(b)

Check whether the height control solenoid valve has continuity (will vibrate).

OK:

The solenoid makes a sound, and the height control solenoid valve has continuity. (It will vi-
brate.)

When not using hand–held tester:
PREPARATION:
Disconnect the valve connector.
CHECK:
Check the operating sound of the valves when battery positive
voltage is applied to the terminals as shown below.

HINT:

When a malfunction is found in the gate solenoid valve,
replace the leveling valve and the height control valve.

When a malfunction is found in the exhaust solenoid
valve, replace the height control compressor assy.

5

Reconfirm DTC.

CHECK:
Clear the DTC and repeat the procedure to re–check it (See page 

DI–729

).

HINT:
If the DTC C1751/51 is still output, proceed to the next step.

NEXT

Check and repair or replace malfunctioning
parts.

(a)

Air tube is clogged (See page 

SA–156

).

(b)

Compressor is faulty (See page 

SA–162

).

(c)

Relief valve is faulty (See page 

SA–166

).

(d)

Height control sensor sub–assy is faulty (See page 

SA–156

).

(e)

Foreign material entered the height control solenoid valve (gate solenoid valve) and the exhaust sole-
noid valve.

(f)

Air leakage due to damage to the height control cylinder assy (pneumatic cylinder).

(g)

Suspension control ECU malfunctions (See page

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

HINT:

If DTC C1774/74 (power source circuit) is displayed, perform the inspection necessary for DTC
C1774/74 first (See page 

DI–763

).

If DTC U0122/67, U0100/65, U0132/71 and C1761/61 (ECU malfunction) are output at the same time,
perform the inspection necessary for the CAN communication system first.

The suspension control ECU, controlling the air suspension system, is activated when the ignition
switch is turned ON.
After 2 seconds, the ”MAIN RELAY” built in the ECU is activated and the system is driven by +B power
source.
Vehicle height may increase after turning the ignition switch off and unloading the vehicle/letting
people get out of the vehicle. In order to adjust the vehicle height, vehicle height control will continue
for a while from then.
