INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1.RECONFIRM DTC
a. Check DTCs (SEE DTC CHECK/CLEAR
).
1. Confirm if the DTC C1761 and/or C1774 is recorded.
OK:
DTC C1761 and/or C1774 is not output.
HINT:
If either DTC C1761 (ECU malfunction) (SEE DTC C1761 ECU MALFUNCTION
or DTC C1774

POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT ) is displayed, carry out the necessary inspection. If they are output at the
same time, carry out the necessary inspection for DTC C1774 first.
NG: REPAIR CIRCUIT INDICATED BY OUTPUT CODE
OK:Go to next step
2.PERFORM ACTIVE TEST BY HAND-HELD TESTER
a. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
b. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and turn the hand-held tester main switch on.
c. Select the item below in the ACTIVE TEST and operate it with the hand-held tester.
VEHICLE CONDITION / TEST DETAILS
d. Check the operation sound of the AIR SUS relay when operating it with the hand-held tester.
OK:
The operation sound of the AIR SUS relay can be heard.
NG: Go to step 3
OK: REPLACE SUSPENSION CONTROL ECU (SEE REPLACEMENT
)
3.INSPECT AIR SUS RELAY
a. Remove the AIR SUS relay from the fusible link block.
b. Measure the resistance according to the value (s) in the table below.
