DTC C1713 Rear Height Control Sensor RH Circuit Malfunction

DTC C1714 Rear Height Control Sensor LH Circuit Malfunction


DESCRIPTION

The height control sensor changes its resistance value based on changes in vehicle height. The suspension control ECU outputs a fixed voltage of 5 V to the SHB terminal of the height control sensor. If the sensor resistance value changes, the sensor voltage value changes accordingly. The suspension control ECU then receives the voltage value from the sensor to detect the vehicle height change.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE

NOTICE:
  1. Before performing troubleshooting, inspect the connectors of related circuits.
  2. If the suspension control ECU or height control sensor is replaced, the vehicle height offset calibration must be performed (Click here).
1.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (HEIGHT CONTROL SENSOR - SUSPENSION CONTROL ECU)
NOTICE:
When inspecting the wire harnesses between the suspension control ECU and each sensor, it is difficult to determine the malfunctioning area if there is a sensor power supply malfunction. Therefore, disconnect each sensor connector (front RH, front LH, rear RH and rear LH) on the ECU side.


  1. Check the front height control sensor RH side: (C1711)

    1. Disconnect the K35 and K36 ECU connectors.

    2. Disconnect the z34 sensor connector.



    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
