Component Location





General Description

The ECS is the acronym for "Electronic Control Suspension". This ECS system automatically controls the height of a vehicle level and the damping force of shock absorbers according to road condition. So it improves riding comfort and steering stability. The ECS switch is set up near the shift lever. When a vehicle enters on the rough road and a driver presses this ECS switch, the ECS ECU receives the driver's questing through the switch and then causes a vehicle's level to move up. Also, when a driver presses the ECS switch related to damping force, a vehicle enters into sports mode.

DTC Description

The ECS ECU monitors the state of ECS switch and if it is detected as a open or short circuit, this DTC is set.
