DTC C1736 Front Suspension Control Valve RH Malfunction
DTC C1737 Front Suspension Control Valve LH Malfunction
DESCRIPTION
In order to decrease roll angle/pitch angle, the suspension control ECU turns the spring rate switching valve in the front suspension control valve off/on to change the fluid lines when the acceleration sensor or yaw rate sensor signal is input into the suspension control ECU. Normally, the spring rate switching valve is open.
DTC Code | Detection Condition | Trouble area |
C1736 | When either of the following is detected: With the spring rate switch valve RH not activated, an open signal of the spring rate switch valve RH is detected for 1 second or more. With the spring rate switch valve RH activated, a short signal of the spring rate switch valve RH is detected 8 times successively. | Harness or connector Front suspension control valve RH (Front spring rate switching valve RH) Suspension control ECU No. 1 height control valve |
C1737 | When either of the following is detected: With the spring rate switch valve LH not activated, an open signal of the spring rate switch valve LH is detected for 1 second or more. With the spring rate switch valve LH activated, a short signal of the spring rate switch valve LH is detected 8 times successively. | Harness or connector Front suspension control valve LH (Front spring rate switching valve LH) Suspension control ECU No. 1 height control valve |

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
- NOTICE:
- HINT:
- Power is supplied to the front suspension control valve and No. 1 height control valve from the suspension control ECU. If a short occurs in the power supply circuit in the No. 1 height control valve, DTC C1736 and/or C1737 will be stored. In this case, DTC C1741, C1742, C1743, C1744, C1753, C1754 and/or C1755 will also be stored.
1.PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (FRONT SPRING RATE SWITCHING VALVE) |
Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Start the engine and turn the tester on.
Select the Active Test mode on the intelligent tester.
Check the operation of the front spring rate switching valve solenoid when operating the solenoid with the intelligent tester.
Tester Display | Test Part | Control Range | Diagnostic Note |
FR Gas Spring Switch Valve | Front spring rate switching valve RH | ON or OFF | When the FR Gas Spring Switch Valve item of the Active Test is operated, the FR Gas Spring Switch Valve item of the Data List changes to ON/OFF. |
FL Gas Spring Switch Valve | Front spring rate switching valve LH | ON or OFF | When the FL Gas Spring Switch Valve item of the Active Test is operated, the FL Gas Spring Switch Valve item of the Data List changes to ON/OFF. |
- OK:
- The front spring rate switching valve operates.
