CHECK DAMPING FORCE CONTROLLING CONDITION




a. In case of not using hand-held tester:
Check the damping force controlling condition.
1. Using SST, connect terminals Ts and CG of the DLC3 with the ignition switch OFF (TEST mode).

2. Start the engine.
Under this condition, the absorber control actuator position becomes 1 (Soft).
3. Starting from the above mentioned position, as the brake pedal is depressed, the absorber control actuator position increase (1 2 3.... 15 16. At this time, bounce the vehicle and check that the shock absorber is becoming harder.

HINT:
- To hold the absorber control actuator at a specific position, adjust it to the position using the above mentioned procedure then increase the vehicle speed to over 5 km/h.
After that the absorber control actuator position does not change until the ignition switch is turned to OFF.
- If the absorber control actuator does not operate, inspect the absorber control actuator circuit and absorber control ECU.

4. Disconnect the SST from terminals Ts and CG of the DLC3.
