INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
Performing the ACTIVE TEST using the hand±held tester allows the relay, VSV, actuator and so on to oper-
ate without parts removal. Performing the ACTIVE TEST as the first step of troubleshooting is one method
to shorten labor time.
It is possible to display the DATA LIST during the ACTIVE TEST.
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) Turn the ignition switch off.
(c) Connect the hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(d) Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
(e) Turn on the tester.
(f) Select the item ºDIAGNOSIS / ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TESTº.
(g) According to the display on the tester, perform the ºACTIVE TESTº.
ItemTest DetailsDiagnostic Note
LOCK UP
[Test Details]
Control the shift solenoid SLU to set the automatic transmission to the
lock±up condition.
[Vehicle Condition]
Throttle valve opening angle: Less than 35 %
Vehicle Speed: 60 km/h (37 mph) or more
Possible to check the SLU opera-
tion.
HINT:
This test can be conducted when the vehicle speed is 60 km/h (37 mph) or more.
This test can be conducted in the 5th gear.
Lightly depress the accelerator pedal and check that the engine speed does not change abruptly.
HINT:
When changing the accelerator pedal opening angle while driving, if the engine speed does not
change, lock±up is on.
Slowly release, but not fully, the accelerator pedal in order to decelerate. (Fully releasing the pedal will
close the throttle valve and lock±up may be turned off automatically.)

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
1. GENERAL
This system uses pneumatic cylinders instead of the coil springs that are used in a conventional rear
suspension. The suspension control ECU analyzes the information based on the switches, sensors,
and input signals, operates the compressor assy, and uses the solenoid valves to control the vehicle
height.
The suspension control ECU detects, via the height control sensor, the changes in the rear vehicle
height that results from the number of occupants or the amount of the load. Then, the suspension con-
trol ECU controls the height control solenoid valves and the compressor assy in order to automatically
adjust the rear vehicle height to a constant (normal) vehicle height.
Furthermore, three vehicle heights can be selected by operating the height control switch: HI, NOR-
MAL, and LO. The HI vehicle height ensures the vehicle's drive±through performance on rough roads.
The LO vehicle height facilitates the entry and exit of the occupants and the loading and unloading
of cargo. The NORMAL vehicle height helps realize excellent controllability and riding comfort during
normal driving.

3. FUNCTION OF MAIN COMPONENTS
ComponentOutline
Height Control Mode Select SwitchUsed to select vehicle height control mode (Auto/Manual).
Used to operate or stop auto leveling control.
Height Control SwitchAuto mode: Used to select vehicle height (HIGH, NORMAL, LOW).
Manual mode: Used to select vehicle height optionally.
Height Control SensorConverts the vertical change of the rear axle, in proportion to the standard, to sig-
nals and detects vehicle height.
Height Control Indicator Lamp (Combination Meter)Auto mode: Target vehicle height is displayed (HIGH, NORMAL, LOW).
Manual mode: Current vehicle height is displayed (HIGH, NORMAL, LOW).
Height Control Manual Indicator Lamp (Combination Meter)
Comes on during manual mode.
Blinks when the suspension control ECU detects a system malfunction.
Blinks during test mode.
Displays output DTC.
Stop light SwitchDetects braking condition.
Used to clear DTCs.
Pneumatic Cylinder (Height Control Cylinder Assy)Supports the vehicle body and adjusts the vehicle height.
Height Control Compressor Assy (Compressor/Height Con-
trol Dryer)The compressor generates compressed air that is necessary to raise vehicle
height and supplies it to the height control cylinder assy.
The dryer removes moisture from the compressed air.
Exhaust Solenoid ValveDrains the air in the height control cylinder assy when vehicle height is lowered.
(Built into the height control compressor assy)
Leveling Solenoid ValveOpens or closes the passage between the height cylinder assy and height control
compressor assy.
Gate Solenoid ValveOpens or closes the passage between the right and left height control cylinder assy
(Built into the leveling solenoid valve).
Suspension Control ECU
Estimates vehicle condition based on the signals from sensors and switches, and
outputs the control signals to the compressor and valves.
Blinks the height control manual indicator light when a system malfunction is de-
tected.
Air Suspension RelaySupplies power to the height control compressor assy.
Door Courtesy Switch (Body ECU)Detects whether the 5 doors, including the back door, are opened or closed, and
sends the signals to the suspension control ECU.
ECMSends the engine speed signal, etc. to the suspension control ECU through CAN
communication.
Speed Sensor (Skid Control ECU)Sends the vehicle wheel speed signal, etc. to the suspension control ECU through
CAN communication via the translate ECU.

4. CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION OF MAIN COMPONENTS
Compressor Assy
The compressor and motor are used to make the compressed air necessary for raising the vehicle
height.
The exhaust solenoid valve is provided on the compressor assy. The exhaust solenoid valve dis-
charges compressed air from the pneumatic cylinders to the atmosphere in order to lower the vehicle.
The dryer is used to eliminate the moisture in the compressed air made by the compressor and motor.
To protect the battery, this compressor assy operates only when the engine is running.
